- Symbolism: The Honu is the Hawaiian symbol of longevity, peace, humility, fertility and the spirit within. The honu is considered a symbol of the island (the word for land is 'Aina honua). They have a saying "land is like a turtle, as it moves on", meaning that it passes slowly but inexorably from owner to heir. The honu are featured in Hawaiian mythology, petroglyphs and as 'aumakua (personal family gods, spiritual family guardian/protector). Many a canoe paddler has told of being lost or in danger between island voyages, only to be guided by his Honu 'aumakua towards a safe landing. The turtle is a revered symbol thoughout Polynesia, depicting the wisdom that comes with age and as the wanderer or traveller. It is said to represent a very wise person wtih a love for the sea and a passion for travelling and exploring the wonders of the world. It is also like the Albatross in that its skill in navigating the wide oceans is legendary. The Color of Beige Gemstones is a soft neutral color that isn't quite white and has some of the earthiness of light browns. Biege represents quiet, understated elegance, and pleasantness with a touch of luster. As a neutral, beige is a calming color. It carries some of the same pureness, softness, and cleanliness of white but is slightly richer, a touch warmer. Coral is a symbol of Life Force Energy. Its energy helps overcome lethargy and depression, dispels foolishness, nervousness, fear and panic, guards against accidents and theft. It represents the ability to allow for flow and change in ones life and quiets the emotions. Helps one to connect with the quality of the mystic within. Makes difficult communications easily understood. It also symbolizes attachment; believed to be an amulet against natural disasters, disease, bad luck, and jealous friends.

This Coral Piece Was Fished From Central North Pacific Waters Off the Northern Hawaiian Islands Chain and Was Calibrated Into a Dome-Shaped Cabochon Bead to Display its Natural Color. A Cabochon is a Gemstone Which Has Been Shaped and Polished as Opposed to Being Faceted. The Resultant Form is Usually a Convex Top With a Flat Bottom. Cutting "en cabochon" is Usually Applied to Opaque Gems, While Faceting is Usually Applied to Transparent Stones. The Usual Shape for Cutting Cabochons is an Oval. This is Because the Eye is Less Sensitive to Small Asymmetricalities in an Oval (as Opposed to a Round Shape), and Because the Oval Shape, When Combined With the Dome, Make it Attractive.There Are No Known Breaks or Cracks on This Piece. Similar to High-Grade Cultured Pearls, Any Surface Fault Lines (Extremely Subtle Growth Rings, Natural Surface Imperfections, or Very Scarce Tiny Surface Pours) Noted Are 100% Completely Natural Surface Inclusions Created by Calibrating the Rough Trunk and Branch Pieces Into an Oval-Shaped Cabochon-Cut Gemstone.

A Gorgeous Combination of Coral and Paradise Set in Solid 14k Yellow Gold!About Coral: Coral is the skeletal remains of a marine animal, the polyp corallicum, and is mainly composed of calcium carbonate. Since Corals are calcified skeletons of sea creatures, they grow in primarily two formations resembling either "cauliflower heads" or branches of a tree. Located at depths between 10-1600 feet, coral can be found along the shores of Japan, China, Taiwan, Australia, Hawai`i and throughout Polynesia, the Philippines, Bay of Biscay, Canary Islands, Indonesian and Malaysian Archipelagos, and the Western Mediterranean. Most coral used for jewelry comes from the Mediterranean Sea or from the Pacific Ocean near Hawai`i, Japan and Northern Taiwan. Like many other gemstones made from rock or organic material, coral comes in a variety of many beautiful colors including blue, red, yellow, black, white, gold, orange, and pink. Unlike other precious stones, coral has a smooth brilliant surface when sanded and polished to take on a smooth glossy and shiny luster. White coral is the most plentiful of all coral varieties. The most sought after and rare corals are red, black, angel-skin pink, and gold. With characteristics such as its intense and permanent coloration and glossiness, precious coral jewelry remains very popular. Color is the main value factor of coral. Oxblood-red Mediterranean corals are the most expensive, followed by a deep-red to salmon Moro coral from Japan, a blush angel-skin pink from Taiwan and Hawai`i, rare gold coral from Hawai`i, rare black coral from the Indo-Pacific and Hawai`i, and white being the most commonly available. Most experts also consider intensity and uniformity of color to be a major factor. There are several types of Hawaiian precious corals including black, pink, gold, and a variety of white coral with a pink cast. Hawaiian coral is also considered one of the world’s finest by displaying more lustrous qualities than any other types of corals found in the world. Gold Coral: In Hawaiian, gold coral (Gerardia sp.) is called Puna wai kula. This coral is currently being strictly regulated and therefore is scarcer and more expensive. Some species reveal hints of bluish-green, opal-like colors. Gold coral is mostly concentrated around Hawaiian and Alaskan waters growing at depths of 1150 to 1600 feet. Other locations are the West Indies, Australia and other Pacific Islands. This deep-water "golden coral", collected in Hawaii, has a "skeleton" made of very dense and degradation-resistant protein. These corals appear to grow very slowly perhaps over several centuries or longer. Hawaiian Gold Coral was discovered in small amounts in 1971 by using a submarine in the same general area as the pink coral discovery area off Makapuu Point in 1,200 feet of water. In the year 2000, two new beds of Hawaiian Gold Coral were discovered; one atop an ancient underwater volcano called Cross Seamount, 100 miles south of Oahu, the other off Keahole Point on the Big Island of Hawaii. Both beds are at a depth of about 1,300 feet. The beds off Makapuu were the only commercially harvested beds in the world. Hawaiian Gold Coral grows at a rate of approximately 3 inches per year, and only about 3% of the bed can be harvested annually. Both State and Federal laws strictly regulate the harvest. Of all gem corals, Hawaiian Gold Coral is by far one of the rarest. The color of Hawaiian Gold Coral may vary widely and display many interesting patterns, something that Pink and Black Corals do not display. Gold Coral has a resinous or lacquered texture surface. The color tone of Hawaiian Gold Coral ranges from a greenish-sandy beige color to almost a black. Hawaiian Gold Coral has a special characteristic called “Chatoyance”. This term comes from the French word for “Cat's Eye” and it describes a mysterious moving inner light that can be seen in Hawaiian Gold Coral. Coral Care Tips: Corals are delicate gems and should be taken proper care of. To clean Coral jewelry, wipe it gently with a moist soft cloth, as Coral is much softer than other gem materials. Also, they should be stored carefully and separately from your other jewelry items to avoid scratches. Coral is also porous, similar to pearls, so care should be taken to see that coral jewelry does not come in contact with any chemicals. Because Coral is produced by a living organism it cannot be put into jewelry cleaning solutions. The best way to protect your coral jewelry is to rub mineral oil on about every 6 months to preserve their natural luster. Do not use an ultrasonic cleaner for coral jewelry.
