Coral is an organic gem, calcium carbonate with a trace of carotene, deposited by tiny sea creatures
living in the depths of warm seas in huge colonies. It grows in branches that look like underwater trees.
Most coral used in jewelry is found in the Mediterranean Sea or in the Pacific off Japan and Taiwan.
Coral was long thought to be a powerful talisman that could stop bleeding, protect from evil spirits,
and ward off hurricanes. The ancient belief in the protective and invigorating powers of coral lives
on in the traditional present of red coral necklaces for small children.

Coral trees were once brought to the surface by means of drag nets. But today, the harvesters
use more environmentally sound methods: deep-sea divers collect the branches by hand. In the next step,
the pieces are cleaned, sorted, and sawed into pieces. Most coral is set into inlays, beads, carvings, or cabochon shapes.
Coral has an even color and has no fissures, spots, bands or cavities. Since untreated Coral is rare, it is valuable.
