In his story "The Leviathan," Joseph Roth describes the use of corals as talismans with a special protective function. In previous centuries, Mediterranean corals were supposed to help their wearers achieve greater beauty and at the same time protect them from the "evil eye". They were therefore lucky charms and at the same time protectors from the deep sea, which we encounter from time to time today and whose charm we cannot escape. Even today, the sight of genuine Mediterranean coral still inspires - as in the case of this necklace from around 1900, which presents three rows of wonderful salmon coral cut into pearls and strung in graduated rows. Necklaces like this one can be found in many old photographs from the turn of the century, often bought in Italy in the late 19th century as precious souvenirs to bring back home. Our necklace has a pretty clasp that presents another coral as a bouton. These are corals of select beautiful colour with beautiful vivid colour play. We have had the necklace re-strung so the can be worn worry free. A piece of jewellery and talisman in one!

The stocks of some coral species, which are now under strict conservation, as well as the demand for natural corals, which has increased dramatically in recent years, make coral jewelry today more than ever a sought-after treasure. Only antique pieces or corals from old stock come onto the market today - the quantity is therefore limited and finite.
