A Little About Fossilized Coral

Fossilized coral is formed when ancient coral reefs are gradually replaced by minerals, resulting in a stone-like material that preserves the original coral structure. Over time, the calcium carbonate skeletons of the coral are replaced by minerals such as agate, quartz, or calcite, creating unique patterns and colors within the fossilized coral.

Fossilized coral pieces are highly valued idue to their intricate and organic designs, ranging from delicate floral patterns to intricate swirls and lines. The natural beauty and durability of fossilized coral make it a popular choice for creating one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces, such as pendants, earrings, and rings. Its earthy tones and intricate details add a touch of nature-inspired elegance to any jewelry design, making fossilized coral cabochons a favorite among jewelry artisans and collectors alike.

If you love this sphere, you’ll also love these cabochons.
