Price is per 16-inch string of these unusual red coral beads - each measures 8mm x 5mm. About 80 beads to the strand. As with all non-white coral, these are dyed, but the colour doesn't come off!
Sponges and true-corals come from different sea creatures. Sponges look like a sponge with short protrusions. Sponge coral beads are made from their skeleton. It was once believed sponge coral prevented ill fortune and can be used to prophesize. And some say coral as a visualization stone, has deep spiritual quality capable of activating all the body's chakras.
