Coral Necklaces
Our coral necklaces are made with genuine coral, both natural and occasionally dyed. Today coral is dyed a variety of colours, but we still love the classic reds, blues, and pink/peaches.
Cluny likes to mix coral with lampwork beads, sterling silver, gold fill, sterling silver, freshwater and cultured pearls and mother of pearl. Remember that most of our coral necklaces can have an extension chain added free of charge.
Note to our great International Customers: Please pay for shipping for your coral necklace by going to our Shipping Information page.

Coral Necklaces with Gemstones
Poseidon's Secrets
The secret here is the wonderful genuine white coral branches on this wonderful necklace. The fantastic sharply faceted nuggets are of pink Botswana agate. Some of our favorite Karen Hill Tribes beads are here: the large sterling starfish on either side of the necklace. The S clasp has a starfish on top, too, and is also from the Thai Karen Hill Tribes. The colours and patterns of the pink Botswana agate are beautiful. 116.99

Coral has been popular as a material for jewelry for thousands of years. Believing that wearing coral jewelry could protect children from danger, the ancient Romans made coral necklaces and bracelets for their little ones. They also thought that coral could diagonose diseases by changing its colour as well as cure snake and scorpion bites.
Zuri
Zuri is a coral necklace made with thick coral ovals mixed with vermeil-like gold beads (these beads are gold plated over copper while true vermeil is gold plated over sterling; the benefit is that these beads are less expensive than regular vermeil where you are paying for the price of sterling silver plus the price of the gold used to plate the beads). Wooden beads with geometric designs add an exotic or ethnic touch to the necklace. The dangling charms are made of vermeil beads. 52.99

Coral is one of the oldest jewelry materials found on earth, and was used even in prehistoric times.To make sure that your coral necklace lasts and stays beautiful, keep it away from harsh chemicals since coral is porous. Since it has a hardness of only 3 on the Moh's scale, do not treat it roughly, and do not let harder gemstones in your other jewelry rub against your coral necklace.
To clean your coral necklaces, simply wipe gently with a barely damp cloth. Do not swim in your coral necklaces since coral is highly polished and you will dull its shine.
Remember - if you see SOLD beside the name of our coral necklaces, it means that one of a kind pair is no longer available. Ask us about making a similar pair for you!
