Presented by The Natural Gemstone Company, this listing describes one opaque coral specimen weighing 1.83 carats, cut into a marquise outline and finished as a cabochon. The piece measures 12.03 x 6.01 x 3.61 mm, and it exhibits a balanced combination of salmon and white tones with medium color intensity. The surface shows an excellent polish that produces smooth, mirror like reflections across the dome, and the material is natural with no enhancements declared. The origin is Italy, a source known for high quality coral, and the cabochon cut emphasizes the organic character and even color distribution of the piece.
Visually, the marquise shape provides an elegant elongated silhouette that suits both contemporary and classic mounting styles, while the cabochon profile presents the coral as a warm, uniform field of color rather than a faceted play of light. The salmon hue has a gentle warmth that transitions subtly to pale white areas, creating a restrained two tone effect that is appealing for minimalist and statement settings alike. The dimensions and weight indicate a well proportioned gem for use as a focal element in rings, pendants, or earrings, and the excellent polish enhances tactile smoothness and wearability. The absence of treatments supports an expectation of authentic natural color and material consistency for design and appraisal considerations.
As an organic gem, coral requires thoughtful handling and appropriate settings to preserve its appearance, therefore avoid prolonged exposure to chemical cleaners, acids, strong heat, and ultrasonic or steam cleaning methods. Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap and water, and consider protective bezel or halo style mountings for rings or pieces subject to wear. The density and polish of this sample make it well suited to secure settings that protect the edges of the marquise form while showcasing the clean surface and color. For further technical details, provenance documentation, or additional images, contact The Natural Gemstone Company, and a specialist will provide condition reports and recommendations for integration into bespoke or ready to wear jewelry.
