I never knew that coral always has came in so many colors and variations! I had a saltwater fish tank at one time with bunches of different types of coral, but absolutely never knew that even their skeletons could be colored, or that it was made into jewelry!

[@chrisr7561]

There is also natural blue coral which is made into beads and some jewelry.

These videos are so helpful. I now know the difference between regular coral and fossilised coral (that I have in a ring) and can appreciate more.

[@GothosRedux]

Another organic gem is jet. I’d enjoy an episode about it.

I make cabs and other jewelry out of coral all the time, sometimes it is opalized also, very beautiful and can be brittle too, I love when I find the orange stuff that's opalized. Awesome video, keep them coming please. I hope everyone has a awesome blessed day. Cya! 😺🐟out!

Great video, definitely liked the Guitar pick. I’ve heard it called Chrysanthemum Coral. Never forget your Loupe. 😀✨

[@americanrebel413]

My favorite was the fossilized coral in the slab. Great video thank you.

[@marionbradley6236]

I have black coral from Hawaii. A ring, earrings and a pendant. I also have a pink coral beaded necklace. Amazing that I didn't know much about it when I bought it. Thanks for the wonderful info! ❤🙂

[@karengarcia8587]

This video about coral is so amazing.😯🐚🌊 I never knew there're any types of coral and the information on how they get their colors. To know the history of them is very interesting too.🤔📖 I think all of them are very pretty, since you asked my favorite is the tear shaped one.😀💧💛 Thanks for sharing.😉👍

[@implausibleimpossiblehypot4006]

I’m currently sketching a necklace fit for royalty the center stone is a conch pearl surrounded by round oval ambers the rest of the necklace is pink coral surrounded by jet - I probably will never have the capability to actually obtain a conch pearl but the sketch sure looks purtty

[@userabc222]

[@kalimantangemstone]

Good video

[@auntymar-marjustme]

WOW i am amazed; i've always have liked coral cause it's alive creature; & this morning i read the natgeo article about how the coral in the ocean around miami & the carabiean is being infected w/ SCTLD causing the coral to expel the little algaes & die off; Thankyou for this video; i also noticed how his shirt color matched the 1st coral bracelet; that 1st ring is awsome haven't seen 1 like that is along time

[@barbaraeidinger6826]

I never knew there was black coral...thank you for the education.

[@a.kitcat.b]

I have a coral piece that sorta looks like the coral pick!

[@beammeupscotty1955]

The "not guitar pick" looks like it's a bit of mid-century design. I have seen formica that resembles it.

[@bapbap22]

I wish you showed examples of simulant and non-precious coral, like bamboo coral- which makes up the majority of the market for coral

[@rezkitjokrowijoyo9286]

Most of Indonesian like cabochon shape of gemstones, and they are well known as "Akik" pronounced from Arabic word "Aqeeq". Some of them belive that Akik could bring Power, Health, Wealth, Prosperity, Confidence and Protection.

[@marcanthonymartinez5772]

There are biologists who have been using coral 🪸 from the oceans 🌊 to grow in laboratories 🥼 so they can replace it in the oceans 🌊 .
