Mini Category Pink Coral Clasp Bracelet
$28.00
Pink coral is formed by marine polyps. It is a gem but not a gemstone as it isn’t stone. Most coral is from the Mediterranean Sea or from Japan.
It naturally forms in red, pink, peachy pink, blue and black. It can take a high polish. Coral looks amazing in jewelry. It does need to be handled with some care as it is softer than stone and can break if treated carelessly.
It can be dyed to give it a more uniform color. But the colors it forms in naturally already exist, dying only causes it to be more uniform in color from bead to bead.
Coral symbolizes protection, vitality, fertility, wealth, safe travel, passion.
Also before buying incredibly expensive coral seek a professionals help so you are not taken advantage of. A professional can test for authenticity and dyes which should not be present in a natural undyed specimen.
This is made with mini coral beads with accent crystals.
