Coral teaches patience. The colony may grow as little as a millimeter in a year. The result is one of nature’s most impressive sculptures with no two exactly alike. Likewise, you need to learn how to pace your spiritual growth in such a way you can internalize and apply it, creating inner beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eHOW TO CARE FOR YOUR CORAL:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e As coral is a comparatively soft gem material (its hardness is 3 to 4 on the Mohs scale) you’ll want to keep it in its own cloth pouch so that harder gemstones won’t scratch it. Chlorine, alcohol, ammonia, nail polish remover, and other household chemicals can damage the gemstone. Avoid exposing coral pieces to extreme temperatures. NEVER use an ultrasonic cleaner or steam cleaner. Instead, clean coral with a soft cloth and briefly rinse (do not soak it) in warm, soapy water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e This listing includes 1 strand per order*\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGemstone: Natural Coral\u003cbr\u003eColor: Orange\u003cbr\u003eTransparency: Opaque\u003cbr\u003eCut: Polished bead\u003cbr\u003eShape: Round\u003cbr\u003eStone Size (mm): 2-3mm, 3-4mm\u003cbr\u003eLength: 8 inch, 16 inch\u003cbr\u003eHardness: 4\u003cbr\u003eTreatment: stabilized and color treated\u003cbr\u003eSKU:115675, 6143557, 6143558\u003cbr\u003eSpecial considerations: Please note each strand is unfinished and ready for customization.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taj Mahal Gems","offers":[{"title":"3-4mm\/8 inch","offer_id":43731322535983,"sku":"115675","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3-4mm\/16 inch","offer_id":43731322568751,"sku":"6143557","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3mm\/16 inch","offer_id":43731364053039,"sku":"6143558","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0267\/7411\/0255\/products\/natural-orange-coral-beads-strand-6092114.jpg?v=1753833260","url":"https:\/\/www.tajmahalgems.com\/products\/natural-orange-coral-beads-strand-elegant-jewelry","provider":"Taj Mahal Gems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
