Our shop is located in Kochi Prefecture, a world-famous coral production area.We are a workshop that carries out integrated production of coral, from procurement of logs to loose processing, and jewelry, from design to processing of precious metals. Coral is a gemstone created by nature, and it is difficult to make the same loose gemstone because the colors and shapes of the raw wood vary widely. Sometimes there are items with very beautiful color gradations that cannot be expressed in words or grade, or items with beautiful shapes that cannot be created by human hands. These are also one of the charms of coral, a gem created by nature. We offer a variety of products, from high-quality items to accessory quality items, so please look for your favorite coral.
[Gane Coral] This is a type of coral that was collected near the Hawaiian Islands and Midway Islands, but is no longer collected, and the amount in circulation is decreasing year by year. It is relatively transparent and ranges in color from white to pale pink, with darker colors reaching orange-like salmon pink. It does not have a distinct white color like red or peach, but even though the surface is pink, the color becomes white towards the center of the trunk. Therefore, even loose clothing often has a white part on the back side.
[About gemstone coral] In general, corals that are processed as gemstones are made by polishing the bone shafts produced by living creatures called corals.
Corals are in the same family as jellyfish and sea anemones, and can be divided into hexagonal coralline and eight-type coralline subtypes, depending on the number of polyp tentacles. There are two types of coral: hard coral, which has a hard bone axis, and soft coral, which does not have a bone axis. Because the bone shafts of Rokpo coral are fragile, Happo coral is used as jewelry, but most corals are soft corals that do not have hard bone shafts, and only some types of Happo coral are processed into jewelry.
