A single 16-inch strand of natural Herkimer diamond chips, drilled and strung, with irregular nuggets roughly 3-7mm across and a polished finish. Herkimer diamonds are double-terminated quartz crystals from Herkimer County, New York, not carbon diamonds, so the strand gives a clear, glassy sparkle at a modest value rather than gem-grade brilliance. The organic chip shape suits rustic and boho jewelry, wire wrapping and beaded spacers. Compared with uniform faceted beads, the chips vary in size and hole placement, which buyers should expect.

Buyers rate the strand highly and describe the stones as pretty, dainty and beautiful, matching the listing. The main friction is practical: the bead holes are very small. At least one buyer received the wrong gems initially, though the seller corrected it.
