This is a stunning mat/dim orange red blood coral necklace. This beauty is handmade and therefore unique. These coral beads are rather big and all different in shape and size, they are not perfectly round which gives the necklace a playful yet classy look. This stunning Italian necklace is a feast for the eyes and will no doubt brighten up any outfit. This one of a kind natural beauty we can place in the category of 'klederdracht juweel'. Because it is has the looks of a traditional old Dutch jewel from the late 1800's.
These blood coral comes from coral beds located in the Mediterranean Sea. We think they have been beads for at least 100 years, dating back to the time Queen Victoria was queen of England. These untreated beauties have a natural orange red colour. The older they are, the more sunlight they have already had to endure, making their colour faded and their appearance duller, just like these beads. We assume the Italian jeweller created a new necklace using the beads of an old antique necklace.
We would describe it in one sentence as a : beautiful authentic and warm colour blood coral!
