Red coral is the
Jyotish gem related to Mars, which is the planet of ambition, motivation and desire. It
rules physical strength, forcefulness, energy and passion. Wearing a red coral of at least
2 carats is said to remove obstacles, avert warfare, purify the blood and cure boils. It
will make the wearer courageous yet prudent. Red coral can be substituted with carnelian
of at least 5 carats. If you want to know more about the

Delightful, very
beautiful, untreated, ox-blood coral cameo. Last piece 18x13mm of
wearable, Italian art!
$87/ct
$485/gem |
Our
best ox-blood coral cameo, weighting 5.57cts., finest, ox-blood red
color (not treated, not dyed!), marvelously cut for large
appearance, measuring 18x13mm oval cabochon with exquisite carving
details, (pic is larger than actual piece...please, refer to
dimensions in mm). Coral is from Sardinia, Mediterranean sea and
engraved in Torre Del Greco, Italy. Usually a 18x13mm will weight
7-8+ cts.. This one has the same dimensions without paying the
additional 2+ carats in weight (that would be placed in the bottom,
making the whole cabochon higher). These coral cameos
are extremely hard-to-get, as the old traditional art of coral
engraving/carving is disappearing in Torre Del Greco. Wearable Italian art and unique
piece! |

("corno") pendant in 18K yellow gold, weighting 4.05 cts. total
weight, top, fine, ox-blood red color, completely untreated (not
dyed!), 1 1/4" long, from a free form, coral tree, Sardiania,
Mediterranean Sea. Capped by an 18K yellow gold bail, this is ready

$330/gem |
During our last trip to
Torre Del Greco, we picked only one
piece (with the nicest color) of these gorgeous coral cameos. This
weights 5.38cts., finest, ox-blood red color (completely untreated,
not dyed!), 12x16mm calibrated oval cabochon with exquisite carving
details. (pic is larger than actual piece...please, refer to
dimensions in mm). Coral is from Sardinia, Mediterranean sea and
engraved in Torre Del Greco, Italy. Nowadays, only a handful of "incisori"
(literally "engravers") in Torre Del Greco, are still working the
coral this way. It is an art that has been passed down from
father-to-son for centuries, but destined, unfortunately, to
disappear. This is a great, rare example of wearable art that is
sure to please and uplift the spirit! |

A
great 6.18 cts. of Mediterranean coral cabochon, medium-dark,
ox-blood color, excellent, oval cabochon cut, with ideal cutting
proportions, measures 16x12mm, from the coasts off Sardinia,
Mediterranean Sea. Gorgeous cabochon, big face, looking like a 9 cts.
one. Right now this quality is very hard to get. Pollution and
global warming cause the weakening of polyps responsible for the
growth of coral. Much less dark material available and in smaller sizes.
This one is the last of fine, dark ox-blood color. |

The
impressiveness, beauty and energy of this large, gem quality, coral
piece cannot be transmitted through this picture. The largest and most
perfectly cut cabochon of untreated red coral we have been able to
get during our last trip to Torre Del Greco. A whopping 14.06 cts.,
medium, ox-blood red color, magnificently executed in a perfect oval
cabochon cut measuring a calibrated 20x15mm, flawless piece with
mirror finish from off the coast of Sardinia, Mediterranean Sea.
Large pieces of this
quality, purity and untreated state are extremely rare and hard to get. At
this price, you should not think too much. Nobody has a piece like
this available, more so at this very low price! Very, very hard to
obtain. |
