Red coral and black onyx necklace in silver 925, featuring two twisted coral strands with hand-polished fragments and black onyx spheres at the ends.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This necklace is a tribute to the profound beauty of the Mediterranean and craftsmanship, reinterpreted with contemporary taste. Made with natural Mediterranean red coral (Corallium rubrum), glossy black onyx, and 925 silver, it combines noble materials in a vibrant, sophisticated, and strongly identity-driven composition.
Two intertwined coral fili, with hand-polished fragments that preserve the authentic beauty of nature, glide harmoniously towards a center rich in volume and dynamism. The ends of the necklace are embellished with black onyx spheres mounted with elegant embossed silver covers, while the closure elements in solid silver, shaped with fluid and modern forms, provide balance and refinement to the overall design.
The color contrast between the vivid red of coral and the deep black of onyx is enhanced by the shine of silver, creating a piece of jewelry with a commanding presence, ideal for expressing elegance and personality on any occasion.
This precious, very rare material, now strictly regulated, grows slowly in the rocky depths of the Mediterranean Sea, between 30 and 200 meters, in low-light conditions. Its natural coloration, a deep red tending towards vermilion, is considered one of the most fascinating in nature.
The Mediterranean red coral has been a symbol of life, rebirth, protection, and a connection to primordial waters for millennia. Used since Phoenician, Roman, and Renaissance times, it is considered a powerful talisman against negative energies and a good luck charm associated with fertility and vitality.
