Gemology point: coral is a gem of organic origin. Only the branched calcareous trunks of certain corals are used in jewelry. Its color is due to organic pigments close to carotene: varying from blood red to white, including "angel skin" pink. Currently, most coral species are protected by the CITES convention, the convention on international trade in endangered species of wild fauna and flora.
