DESCRIPTION:

The coral is so fine in these & have such a great quality, that it's amost like they should be set in gold! They are small,but the quality speaks levels!

Cecil cut all the coral & then laid them in a cobblestone layout,where they graduate in size & are beveled off beautifully! You can just see the quality of coral in these & have a mirror shine to them!The drop hangs from a small sterling 3 mm bead & are very wearable.

Perfect for the woman who loves high end southwest jewelry & will go with your collection of other finer pieces! They are very wearable in size & weight,while offering a top notch look!

***FYI***:

It's getting harder & harder getting any coral at any reasonable price & for anyone in this business knows then how much the price of Coral has climbed to & has gotten so ridiculously expensive, which makes it unaffordable for many artists to even consider buying. Coral's cost has skyrocketed up to 500% in the last three years & compared to 3 years ago when it was at about $250 a gram, it is now at $1000 a gram!!

But to make matters worse, it's all because of human disturbance, based on overfishing and indirect by climate change. Coral is now on the "Rare" list & no longer can it be fished, NOR brought in the USA. (These reasons are also reflected in the price) So now what we're seeing is coming from older stock & everyday the price goes up & just like real estate or oil, it will never be the price tomorrow, as it is today. Any more,it has become an 'investment' gem.
