Physical Composition & Structure
Black Coral is an organic gemstone formed from the skeletal remains of deep-sea coral colonies, composed primarily of conchiolin and calcium carbonate. Unlike common corals, Black Coral grows in dark, nutrient-rich waters and is known for its fibrous, horn-like texture. It appears in shades of deep brown to true black, often exhibiting a natural sheen when polished. Found in regions such as the Caribbean, Hawaii, and the Red Sea, this unique coral has been revered throughout history for its mystical properties and protective qualities.
