From a gem collector's private collection, this is a beautiful rare natural bright red Sardinian coral necklace, circa 1970s from Italy. The coral is as natural as it gets, and the strands are in a beautiful scalloped pattern that frames your neck.
You cannot get beautiful vivid red Sardinian coral anymore - it is not harvested as Italy has put a moratorium on extracting coral. This is a beautiful vintage necklace. This one is hand crafted in a beautifully scalloped color design.
