I just saw this morning on HSN, two Herkimer rings on sale. The one that was heart shaped had some “character “. The emerald cut one looked like plain glass not even clear. However when Colleen Lopez presented Herkimer it had some brilliance to it but to me it was a big “nothing-burger “ Am I missing something?

I have never been tempted to purchase this line.  To me it looks like rock candy......nothing special, not alot of pizazz or sparkle.  I believe it is a quartz.

Many must like and enjoy it.  It seems to sell well.

It is a type of quartz. It can be called Herkimer Diamonds...But it is a quartz.  It is very setimental for me.  I remember as a child going to the mine and digging for Herkimer diamonds.  Was so much fun.  You can still go there.  It also has a gift shop.  It is New York. State

I have a few items from this line and I like it.  Granted they certainly do not sparkle like diamonds but they are quite pretty.  I did return a couple of things as they had too many inclusions and it took away from the look.  If you are lucky and get a nice clear one it makes all the difference.  I like supporting an American company and a woman owned mine.

They are just quartz crystals so don't have much sparkle.  Kind of dead, like glass.

I like some of the pieces from this line.  Years ago, I purchased a white quartz necklace with very large hunks of irregularly faceted quartz along the entire span of the necklace from this collection. I love wearing that one. It has an organic feel to it, and it goes with everything I wear. It gives the appearance of wearing chunks of ice around the neck. I find it fun to wear.

They come out of the earth naturally faceted on both ends of the crystals. I prefer them like that instead of having someone cut and facet them into various shapes. To me that takes away the beauty of natural Herkimer 'diamonds'.

It's just your regular crystal quartz.  She does an excellent job of making it sound wonderful and special but it isn't.  I have a ring and pendant that wear with my turtlenecks in the winter.  I bought mine for much less $ from Shoplc.
