The Red Gold of the Mediterranean: The Natural Coral from Tunisia in its Pure Form.

Our lots of Corallium rubrum are rigorously sorted and classified according to three main gemological criteria:

The Diameter (Thickness): Extra-Large Category (>10 mm) for sculpture and large cabochons; Medium (6 to 10 mm) for jewellery beads; Small (<6 mm) for fine branches and micro-beads.

Surface Quality (Porosity): Strict selection of healthy branches, free from worm galleries and unwanted perforations, ensuring optimal yield for cutting.

The Colour Code: Classification based on mass uniformity, from bright sparkling red to deep blood red (Moro).

Thanks to the superior limestone density of coral from the cold, deep waters of Tunisia, our raw materials exhibit rare structural homogeneity. The loss rate during sawing and pre-polishing is optimised, providing a useful yield generally exceeding 15% to 20% compared to low-density corals from warm waters.

Yes, absolutely. Corallium rubrum is subject to strict monitoring to ensure the sustainability of the species. Each international shipment is accompanied by its official CITES export permit, a certificate of origin issued by the Tunisian authorities, and a customs traceability document. We guarantee a 100% legal, transparent, and auditable process by your compliance services.

For B2B raw supply, our minimum order quantity depends on the batch category (please consult us for exceptional items). Standard shipping times are 3 to 4 weeks, the time required for the preparation of calibrated batches and the issuance of CITES visas specific to your destination country.
