Coral
and Sea Bamboo
Coral:
Coral is not a mineral but a hard calcareous substance consisting
of the continuous skeleton secreted by many tribes of marine
coelenterate polyps for their support and habitation. It
is found growing plant-like on the sea-bottom. With pollution
on the rise everywhere it is becoming increasingly rare,
to the extent that even the most prized, the Mediterranean
coral, is threatened with extinction.
Dyed Sea Bamboo Coral:
The raw material is sea bamboo coral, a kind of seawater
plant fossil which is similar with the natural coral. The
natural color is white and dyed in red & pink. Sizes
of 2-14mm including beads, chips, nuggets, donuts, can be
processed as full drilled or half-drilled, carved flowers
or cabochons.
Sponge Coral:
Raw material of sponge coral is mangrove, also a seawater
plant fossil. With natural red color and produced with a
special kind of glue, finished products are charming and
elegant
