Genuine Italian Mediterranean corals inspire to this day by their wonderfully rich play of colors with pronounced richness of variations. From the creamy white of the Adriatic coral to the delicate pink of the angel skin coral or Pelle d'Angelo to the strong dark red color known as oxblood or Moro coral, this wonderful natural material is characterized by the most beautiful colors that the sea can produce. Creamy pale pink in the most delicate shades makes this necklace of genuine angel skin coral an enchanting eye-catcher. Looking at the necklace, it becomes clear how appropriately the name of this coral is chosen. The 211 coral beads used here are all cut by hand. They are knotted strung in the sale and have a diameter of up to 1.2 cm. The necklace has an imposing length of 138 cm and can be worn as a sautoir or wrapped several times. The piece of jewelry is completed by a box clasp in gold-plated silver, renewed in our workshop.

For centuries an integral part of princely and later also bourgeois art chambers, coral jewelry, especially from the region around the Bay of Naples, enjoyed unprecedented popularity, especially in the 19th century. The stocks of some coral species, which are now under strict protection, 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. Experts speak today, concerning the value of Mediterranean corals already of the "diamond of the future". Today, only antique pieces or corals from old stock come onto the market - the quantity is therefore limited and finite. So the value of corals can only increase!
