Bamboo Coral Merlot Red Dyed Stick

$777 $1295

SKU: 98ST440-D

Dyed and lacquered bamboo coral stick beads in a rich dark red, cut into assorted sizes for an organic, irregular look that's hard to fake with glass or resin.

The dye delivers a deep, saturated red — warm and intense — while the lacquer finish gives each stick a smooth, polished surface that catches light along the natural grain of the coral.

What to make with them

String them end-to-end on cord or wire for bold statement necklaces where the varied lengths create natural rhythm, or scatter them as focal accents between seed beads in bead-woven pieces where their irregular stick shapes add an earthy, tactile contrast.

Description

Like Pearls, Corals help make up the very small list of organic jewelry materials. Also, like pearls, Corals consist of more than 90% calcium carbonate. The corals used in bead and jewelry making are not the protected coral species of the fragile coral reefs, but the more common and hearty species such as corallium japonicum or corallium rubrum. Coral is sensitive to heat, direct sunlight and cosmetics. Currently the International Commission of Colored Gemstones (CIBJO) recognizes only five organic (once living material) gemstones: Ammolite, amber, pearl, jet, and coral. Bamboo coral grows in segmented sections similar to those of bamboo. Match our bamboo coral with turquoise, sterling silver and heishi style beads.
