[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10560218, member: 2844"]You can never have enough coral! And Momo coral is just beautiful, you are lucky to live close to the source. I shouldn't complain, the Netherlands still has an abundance of old Mediterranean coral. Once worn with Dutch regional costumes, and the Dutch love of coral has gone on to this day. We even call one colour 'old Dutch'.;) It is a sort of salmony red, the shade Mediterranean red goes after a century or more. Sardinians go as far as to bleach newly harvested red coral to this shade especially for the Dutch market.:shame:[/QUOTE]
