Historical Curiosities
Red coral has a long history dating back to antiquity, when it was considered a sacred and magical material. In ancient Rome and Greece, coral was seen as a powerful protective amulet, capable of warding off the evil eye and negative energies. Greek legends say that coral was born from the blood of Medusa, transformed into stone when Perseus beheaded her. For this reason, coral was considered a symbol of protection and power.
Over the centuries, this material has been widely used in Mediterranean jewellery, particularly in Southern Italy, where the goldsmith traditions linked to coral are still very much alive. During the Renaissance, it was particularly appreciated by European noblewomen for its beauty and symbolic meaning. Today, coral continues to be a prized material in the creation of jewellery, as it represents a strong bond with nature and Mediterranean culture.
