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 red coral jewelry remains very popular. Color is the main value factor of coral. Oxblood-red Mediterranean corals of Naples and Sardinia are the most expensive, followed by deep-red to salmon Moro and Momo corals 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. Japanese Red Moro Coral (Corallium japonicum): "Red", “Precious”, or “Noble” Coral are the common names given to Corallium rubrum and several related species of marine red corals. Red corals grow on rocky seabottoms with low sedimentation, typically in dark environments, either in the depths or in dark caverns or crevices and also grow attached to all sorts of objects and commonly grow approximately at right angles to the substrate; that is to say, its growth is not controlled by gravity. The distinguishing characteristic of precious corals is their durable and intensely colored deep red to a warm reddish-pink skeleton, which is used for making jewelry. The hard skeleton of red coral branches is naturally matte, but can be polished to a glassy shine. Classic and expensive, precious red corals are the most valued of all known coral varieties and is favored worldwide for its hardness, beauty, and sanguine hues. Japan's waters are well noted for two highly regarded and valued varieties of precious red corals known as Moro and Momo. Red Moro or Aka coral (Corallium japonicum) is an dark-red to oxblood-red variety fished from the Ryukyu Islands, located directly south of Japan along the Okinawa island chain stretching to within 75 miles from northern Taiwan and is situated between the western Pacific Ocean and the East China Sea. Red Momo coral (Corallium elatius) is a light-medium to medium-dark red variety fished from the Ogasawara islands, located southeast of Japan and situated between the Pacific Ocean and Philippine Sea. Other Precious red coral species are native throughout the western Pacific, including Hawaii, but notably very large beds are found around southern Japan and northern Taiwan waters. Red Coral is also fished from the sandy or rocky bottoms of the Mediterranean Sea off Italy and Sardinia; in the Coral Triangle covering Malaysia and Philippines; the Persian Gulf, and Australia. In 2003, Hawaii, Mexico, and the coast of Africa in the Red Sea were also listed as sources. Precious Red corals of any variety are the most highly prized and desired of all other coral colors and species. Its value varies greatly in range; a single, unset 4.00 carat cabochon-cut piece of ox-blood red Mediterranean coral can sell around $450-$500 wholesale, whereas Sardinian red coral of the same size could sell for around $300-$350 and Japan red corals selling for around $150-$200. With a history predating the ancient glories of Rome, precious red corals have been revered since early civilizations for its color, luster and texture. Found in ocean depths of approximately 500 to 1,000 feet, red coral grows at a very slow rate of only about 1/4 inch per year, making it a highly treasured gemstone. Coral jewelry is the traditional gift for the 35th wedding anniversary. 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.
