More About Red Coral
Red coral has adorned jewellery and cultural artifacts for millennia, tracing its history back to ancient civilisations such as the Egyptians and the Romans. Revered for its vibrant red hue and believed mystical properties, red coral was considered a talisman of protection and vitality. In ancient Rome, coral was prized not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its perceived ability to ward off evil spirits and offer prosperity to its wearer.
Throughout history, red coral has been harvested primarily from the Mediterranean Sea, where it grows in branching formations in depths of up to several hundred feet. Its use in jewellery peaked during the Renaissance, adorning the crowns, necklaces, and cameos of European royalty and nobility, symbolizing wealth, status, and divine favour.
By the 18th and 19th centuries, red coral became increasingly popular in Victorian jewellery, often set alongside pearls and gold to create intricate designs. Its appeal extended beyond Europe, influencing jewellery traditions in Asia, particularly in Tibet and Japan, where coral symbolised longevity and protection against harm.
Today, while natural red coral is protected due to overharvesting and environmental concerns, its cultural significance endures. Modern jewellery artisans often use sustainably sourced or synthetic alternatives to recreate the allure of red coral, ensuring its legacy continues in contemporary designs that honor its rich historical and metaphysical significance.
