Coral Necklace and Bracelet

Coral jewellery has been popular in India for several centuries and is particularly favoured for the astrological properties associated with it. Corals are hard skeletons that are left behind by marine animals such as polyps. Due to its soft form, corals may be formed into beads that can be used in jewellery. The Vedas believe corals to represent Mars and the bearers of the element of heat.

This coral necklace and bracelet have been with the family for around 80 years. It is made with gold and coral beads in green, red and yellow.
