Description from the seller

MAGNIFICENT WHITE ACROPORA CORAL XXL SIZE IN PERFECT CONDITION! VERY RARE!
Large natural white coral – 1.77 kg – Old collection (before 1974)!

Very rare as it comes from a private collection amassed in the 1960s!

Natural white coral – Beautiful decorative piece – Approximately 20 cm

Very beautiful specimen of natural white coral. Its dominant white color is enhanced by subtle brown and ochre tints at the base, testifying to its naturalness and age.
The structure is delicate, branched and symmetrical, typical of Acropora-type corals.
This kind of piece was commonly used as a high-end decorative object or as a curiosity in old cabinets. Today it serves collectors or often high-end aquariums.

Ancient piece from a private collection.
Sale in accordance with CITES regulations: this coral is an antique piece, acquired before 2010 and 1975 and does not come from a recent or wild harvest.

Offered by DTD Shop Design Trend Dazzle, a boutique specializing in curious, rare and precious objects.

In coral reefs, white coral plays a crucial role by providing vital habitat for many marine species. Small fish find secure shelter among its folds and crevices, while invertebrates cling to its surfaces to protect themselves from predators. This interconnection between different forms of marine life creates an ecological balance essential to reef health.

Beyond its ecological importance, white coral enchants divers and snorkeling enthusiasts with its striking beauty. When illuminated by sunlight, its white hues seem to shine with their own light, illuminating the seabed and creating breathtaking underwater landscapes. Its immaculate appearance beautifully contrasts with the vibrant colors of other corals and tropical fish, creating a scene of great visual richness.
