These dyed coral hexagon slices come on a 16-inch strand, offering the flat geometric shape and warm red hue that make them a natural choice for statement-level work. Coral is an organic material, so sizes vary across the strand — that natural inconsistency is part of the appeal.

The dyed finish delivers a saturated, consistent red across the organic coral material, intensifying the color while letting the natural texture of the coral show through.

What to make with them

The flat hexagon slice shape sits beautifully as a focal or connector in boho-style necklaces and earrings, and the geometric profile pairs well with mixed-metal findings for a modern-organic contrast. They also work well strung in multiples for layered summer necklaces where the varied sizing adds rhythm rather than uniformity.

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: <a href="/catalog/Pendants-and-Charms/Gemstone-Beads/Ammonite/">Ammolite</a>, <a href="/catalog/Beads/Gemstone-Beads/Amber/">amber</a>, <a href="/catalog/Beads/Freshwater-Pearls/">pearl</a>, jet, and coral. Bamboo coral grows in segmented sections similar to those of bamboo. Match our bamboo coral with <a href="/catalog/Beads/Gemstone-Beads/Turquoise/">turquoise</a>, <a href="/catalog/Beads/Precious-Metal/Sterling-Silver-Beads/">sterling silver</a> and <a href="/search/Heishi+Shell/searchType/and/">heishi</a> style beads.
