Black Coral and Golden Pearl Necklace

I bought these coral beads while in Mexico this spring. They are harvested from the floor of the Gulf, not from living coral reefs. Even though the coral isn't harvested while its living, there is a limited number of certificates given nationally to gather this material so it's extra special and extra rare! 

Please contact me if you have any questions or want to know more about this piece. Zoom in for detailed views - it's worth it!
