White coral, is derived from the skeletal remains of marine organisms called coral polyps. These tiny creatures secrete calcium carbonate, which forms the hard skeleton that comprises Coral Reefs. Over time, these skeletons accumulate, creating the intricate formations that we recognize as Coral Reefs. White Coral specifically comes from species such as the precious coral (Corallium rubrum) and the organ-pipe coral (Tubipora musica).
One of the most striking qualities of White Coral is its pure and pristine appearance. The milky white hue of this Gemstone exudes both elegance and sophistication, making it a popular choice for jewelry lovers seeking understated beauty. Its soft, lustrous sheen adds a touch of refinement to any piece of jewelry, whether it’s a necklace, bracelet or in this case earrings.
White Coral Gemstone is believed to enhance one’s courage, vitality and energy. In Tibetan Buddhism, White Coral is regarded as a symbol of both purity and prosperity. It is often used in prayer beads and in ritual objects. White coral is believed to also possess numerous healing properties, both physical and metaphysical. It is said to strengthen the skeletal system and aid in calcium absorption, making it beneficial for bone health. Additionally, White Coral is thought to promote emotional balance, relieve stress, and foster inner peace. Many practitioners of alternative medicine use White Coral in therapies aimed at restoring harmony and vitality to both the body and the mind.
While Coral Reefs are abundant in oceans around the world, harvesting White Coral for commercial purposes is strictly regulated due to environmental concerns and the need for vigilant conservation. As a result, White Coral is relatively rare compared to other Gemstones, adding to its allure and to its value. Responsible sourcing and ethical practices are extremely essential in ensuring the sustainability of White Coral mining and in protecting our vital Marine Ecosystems.
Our White Coral Gemstones are sourced from a small, woman owned business on the East Coast, which has been selling Gemstones for nearly two decades. We purchase only AAA Graded Coral, which is the highest quality. Please note that while it's illegal to harvest coral in many places, it's legal to trade coral that has been legally harvested, especially older or vintage pieces. The Coral we purchase is either fragments, which are imported specifically for manufacturing Coral jewelry, and are collected legally through dredging operations in Hawaii. Or Vintage Coral, which is also legal to purchase and to work with in creating jewelry. That being said, Coral values are based on hue, saturation, size, cut and polish. We use only the highest quality materials, to ensure that your piece will last for many, many years.
These gorgeous earrings, will make a lovely Birthday Gift, an Anniversary Gift or as a gift for yourself! (You deserve it!) All of our Coral Earrings are truly one of a kind, because although I have other Coral pieces, they do vary in shape and in size, therefore none are quite like this one. This pair of White Coral Earrings possess an extreme luster that immediately attracts one’s attention. If it's "speaking to you," come right on by, and scoop this lovely up today!
Please be aware that the prices of our pieces depend on many things. Most importantly to understand, is that the better quality of Coral, the higher the price will be. When rare colors, such as blue and red are used, or uniquely cut pieces of Coral are used, an increase in price is to be expected. The size of the Coral will also be taken into consideration. As artists, we have gone to great lengths, and spent a considerable amount of time, trying to find both quality and affordable pieces. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions that you may have before making your purchase, we are always very happy to help!
This listing is for one pair of earrings only.
(Please note that the margin of profit is very small on our Jewelry pieces, therefore we ask that you do not apply any further coupons to them. This allows us to keep our prices down, while also offering you a fair price, thank you.)
