*Gem corals are hard, underwater, organically produced tree-like structures usually found attached to sea floors. These underwater trees are the byproducts of small cylindrical, tube-like colonizing sea creatures called polyps. Sponge Coral for jewellery is farmed and is not removed from the Coral Reef causing the environmental damage associated with traditional corals; thereby making it a natural organic substance, not an endangered species, and a sustainable product. Sponge coral is reconstituted into different shapes for jewellery.
