CORAL Similar to Pearls, Coral is a sea product made up of calcium carbonate. Coral reefs are commonly found near shallow coastlines. The tree-like branches of Coral are the calcified skeletal remains of marine creatures known as polyps. Deep red corals are highly prized, although they come in a range of colours, from pure white to dark red. Various shapes can be carved out of high-quality corals.
Coral Care at Home
- Avoid cleaning coral with water or soap solutions, as they can damage this fragile material.
- Instead, gently clean coral using a damp cloth.
- After cleaning, allow it to air dry thoroughly.
- Avoid wearing coral jewelry during chores, as it can attract dust and grease.
Warning:
- Never expose coral to polish, soap, or harmful chemicals, as it is highly susceptible to damage.
- Store your coral jewelry separately from other jewelry to prevent it from coming into contact, which can lead to scratches and damage.
- With continuous use, corals are likely to get worn and to lose their natural luster.
