Natural Fossil Coral Cabochon Gemstone

Fossil coral, also known as "agatized coral" or "agatized fossil coral," is not technically coral, but rather agate - a type of naturally occurring chalcedony. This means it should not be confused with endangered or protected reef coral or precious coral. Additionally, fossil coral is typically much harder than precious coral and boasts unique skeletal-like patterns in flower shapes, giving it a dull to waxy luster.

According to old civilizations, these precious fossils are capable of carrying divine protection within them and ward off malevolent entities. It's believed that these corals contain the holy essence of long-gone creatures.

Understanding Tarnish

Sterling silver may tarnish over time due to exposure to air, moisture, and chemicals. Tarnish appears as a dulling or darkening of the metal's surface.

Follow the tips below to keep your jewelry bright and shiny for as long as possible!

Daily Wear & Prevention

Remove jewelry before swimming, exercising, or using household cleaning agents, as chemicals can accelerate tarnishing.

Apply lotions, perfumes, and cosmetics before wearing your jewelry to minimize contact with substances that may cause tarnish.

How to clean

Gently clean your jewelry with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oils and dirt. For a deeper clean, use mild dish soap and warm water, rinsing thoroughly and drying with a soft cloth.

Do not use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the silver and any gemstones.

Storage

Store your sterling silver pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping each piece in a separate, airtight bag can prevent scratching and reduce exposure to air and moisture, minimizing tarnish.
