Coral is also called Marjan and Monga stone. Coral is not a mined stone or
mineral, but an organic gemstone. It is the hardened, skeleton-shaped result of
secretions continuously deposited by marine polyps. It looks like a colorful
underwater plant, but it is actually a priceless gift from the sea.
Coral is found in clear at
between 15 and 160 feet. The greater the depth, the lighter the coral's color.
Coral reefs are found in almost all of the world's oceans. The biggest is the
Great Barrier Reef, off the coast of Queensland ,
Australia .
Italian red coral is in the
highest demand in the jewelry industry and is considered the finest quality.
The finest specimens come from Sardinia (Italy )
and Tunisia .
Coral from Japan and China is
considered slightly inferior in quality, but it is more expensive than Italian
red, because it is less abundant. Coral is also found off the coast of
Washington State (U.S.A) and the Aleutian Islands off of Alaska .
