Brand New, Never Used Silver Coral Bead Earrings. 100% Solid .925 Sterling Silver (Not Plated, Not Bonded, Not Filled) Post Stud Earrings With Genuine, Indo-Pacific Seas Black Coral Round Beads. - Coral Support Details: Please Note, There Are Three Physically Known Characteristics of Black Corals That Need to Be Addressed For Customers to Better Understand This Design is Genuine. First, Overall Light Weight: The Weights of Some Black Coral Species Are the Lightest Weighing of All Known Coral Varieties Due to the Way They Grow in Branch Form. At Times, This Might Confuse Uninformed Consumers Who Are Not Aware of This Biologically Known Fact and Possibly Raise Questions Into Their Believing They Are Not Purchasing a Genuine Black Coral Product. Please Be Assured This Design is Created With ONLY Genuine Black Coral Pieces (Not Plastics, Not Fakes, Not Synthetic, Not Anything Else). Second, Tacky or Waxy Feel: As Certain Species of Black Coral Grows, Their External and Internal Keratin-Based Skeletons Are Inherently and Naturally Populated With Overlapping Branch Layers, Concentric Growth Rings, and Are Internally Highly Porous (As Shown in Picture of a Crushed Bead at Bottom of This Listing). To Stabilize and Protect These Natural Internal Growth Inclusions, Reduce Cracking/Splintering, Reduce Absorption From External Caustic Liquids, and Maintain a Long Lasting Durability, "Calibrated Round-Shaped Beads" Are Typically Surface Lacquer Coated and Highly Polished to Seal These Internal and Normally Surface Visible Inclusions. Hence, This Protective Outer Coated Layer Produces a Smooth, Waxy to Vitreous Glass-Like Polished Surface Luster. When Black Coral Beads Are Rubbed Against Each Other, They Will Feel Slightly Tacky and Will Not Rub Away Smooth as With Pink, White, or Red Corals. This "Tacky" Trait Again, Might Lead Consumers to Believe They Have a "Plastic-Made" or an Other Than Coral Product Due to the Combined "Light Weight and Waxy Feel", When They in Fact Are Holding Genuine Pieces of Black Coral Beads That Have Been Surface Lacquered. Pink, White, and Red Coral Varieties Are, For the Most Part, Internally Much More Solid and Dense, Are Substantially Heavier in Weight Comparison, and Do Not Require Any Protective Coating. When Surface Polished, Pink, White, and Red Corals Will Produce a Smooth, Slick Surface and Will Have a Marble-Like Clinking Sound, Similar to Tapping On a Coffee Cup or Tapping Large Pearls Against Each Other. Third, Bead Shapes and Sizes: Although These Round Beads Have Been Calibrated, Polished, and Surface Coated, Each Bead is Shaped Slightly Unique to the Very Next Bead, Very Similar to Round Cultured Pearls. This is Clearly Observable Using a Jeweler's Loupe or Magnifying Glass as One Bead Might Appear Almost Perfectly Round While the One Next to it Might Have a Very Subtle Oval or Egg Shape. Aside From Shape, There Are Slight to Subtle Millimeter Width Differences in Each Bead. Hence, It Would Be Extremely Difficult to Reproduce Each of These Unique Shape and Size Combinations in a Plastic Mold or Any Mold as Many Thousands of Individual Molds Would Have to Be Created to Reproduce the Various Shapes and Sizes Differences Displayed With Just One Coral Necklace. These Coral Pieces Were Fished From the Northern Indo-Pacific Waters and Calibrated Into a Single-Strand of Round Beads. There Are No Known Breaks or Cracks on These Pieces. Similar to High-Grade Cultured Pearls, Any Surface Fault Lines (Extremely Subtle Growth Rings, Surface Imperfections, or Very Scarce Tiny-Sized Dimples or Surface Pours) Noted Are Surface Inclusions Created By Calibrating the Rough Pieces Into Round-Cut Shaped Beads. - Design: Black Coral Beads; Calibrated Cabochon-Cut Round Beads, Solid Sterling Silver Settings, High Polish Luster, Smooth Lacquered Surface, High Polished Finish, Post Studs. - Size: Selectable (From 6.0mm Round to 12.0mm Round). - Measurements (Widths, Weights, Total Carat Weights): 6.0mm (Approx.
