Bamboo coral bracelet - 19 cm

* beautiful deep red bamboo coral bracelet *

Bamboo coral is the fossilized root of the bamboo plant. Bamboo coral is found in desiccated seabeds where bamboo once grew. Due to decay and the effects of salt and iron, the bamboo has fossilized. It is a environmentally friendly alternative to blood coral, which is now a protected coral species.

The original color of bamboo coral is yellowish-white. Bamboo coral is dipped in red dye or injected with dye. Once the coral beads are dyed, they are processed with a resin base and polished to a high gloss.

Beads of the bracelet ±6mm.
