This rare and exquisite earrings feature Momo Coral. Japanese Momo Coral focal beads define the earrings, allowing for a beautiful look with a deep texture and gorgeous color. There are two 11mm+ beads, and two 16.5mm beads. Momo Coral is extremely rare and is only produced when a sponge inhabits a coral colony, emitting an acid that carves little tunnels which becomes it's habitat. This process differentiates Momo Coral (a precious coral) from Sponge Coral (not precious), which has differently colored vein-banding and a different texture. These earrings are made with gold filled wire, including a shepherds hook earwires with a secure silicone ear nut.
I really like the matrices in Hubei turquoise and these don't disappoint. The range of colors is really nice. I have combined these beads with shell heishi (also available from Earthly Adornments), silver and carnelian, the result is stunning (friend's opinion). Next project will be with citrine and brass. They are very versatile.
This is the second or third time I have purchased this bead. It is very unique and works well with lots of colors and styles. I made a bracelet last month with several of these beads in it. I did not even get a chance to list the bracelet, someone bought it off my arm (I test drive my pieces).
I highly recommend it as I do working with Earthly Adornments - they are professional, very helpful and knowledgeable. They have an excellent supply of vintage and antique beads.
