Coral has been prized for millennia as a link between sea and ceremony, a material shaped by ancient tides and held close by generations who valued story and lineage, this Italian orange coral continues that long conversation with a warmth that feels both ancient and immediate. The piece offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a beautiful opaque 1.99 carat round coral, measuring 9.33 by 9.28 by 3.46 mm, cut as a classic cabochon to reveal a soft dome and excellent polish that captures light in a subtle, inner glow. Its medium intense orange color recalls Mediterranean sunsets and the coral collections of Roman and Renaissance jewelers, a hue that complements warm golds as readily as antique silver, the unenhanced nature of this coral preserves its natural character, and its provenance from Italy ties it to a storied regional tradition of careful harvesting and artisanal finishing.
For those who cherish tradition and legacy, this coral is an invitation to craft a piece that can be passed through generations, a focal point for signet rings, pendants, or heirloom brooches that favor classic silhouettes. The cabochon cut emphasizes the organic texture and depth of color, making it ideal for bezel settings or for gentle frames that protect the stone while showcasing its soft radiance. Care for this natural material with simple measures, avoid prolonged exposure to chemicals and strong heat, do not use ultrasonic cleaners, and store it separately to preserve the polish and surface.
