Hardware & Clasp: To protect the high value of this heirloom piece, the prior owner had one side of the hardware professionally updated for modern wear. The stringing is strong, full, and the strands flow beautifully. A lovely investment-grade piece of fine Southwest jewelry history: an authentic vintage Native American 30-strand Mediterranean Red Coral necklace. This museum-quality statement piece features an incredible, heavy drape of 30 individual strands of fine coral seed beads. Under close inspection, the beads showcase the beautiful, natural white core character markings and organic striations that guarantee this is   genuine, undyed Mediterranean coral—a highly protected material that is no longer standardly harvested, making vintage pieces like this increasingly scarce. The strands drape elegantly like liquid fabric and are gathered near the top into decorative rows of larger round coral beads before finishing in classic vintage metal cone findings with a rich, authentic tarnish patina.
