Small Etched Oval Vintage Oxblood Coral Earrings in 18K Gold
E92121-18KCO
Italian deep red oxblood coral is called "Moro." It is a color that possesses a certain authority and mystery. The contrast between a deep Moro red and 18K gold is one of the most luxurious color pairings and feels ancient and powerful. Oxblood coral primarily comes from the deep waters off the coast of Japan and Taiwan. It is a deep blackened crimson that mimics the color of oxygenated blood. Unlike Mediterranean coral, which grows at accessible depths, oxblood coral grows at extreme depths, making it dangerous to harvest, and is incredibly slow-growing. With delicate hand-etched details at each corner, this piece possesses an enchanting folkloric spirit. Oval corals measuring 3/8” x 3/16” are hand-set in recycled 18K gold on an etched flat oval measuring 5/8” x 3/8” with 18K gold lever back ear wire. They hang 1” from the ear. All stones are ethically sourced. Made in NYC.

Most jewelry can be cleaned using a soft toothbrush and warm soapy water. Me&Ro jewelry has a matte finish. Do not use a polishing cloth it will ruin the matte finish. You can use any cream or liquid polish, such as Wright's Silver Cream, to brighten and clean silver, or Wright's Jewelry Cleaner for 10K gold, 18K gold and platinum - which can be purchased at most hardware stores. Bon Ami, a common detergent for pots and pans, or a white 3mm Scotchbrite pad can also be used to brighten up any jewelry and restore the matte finish.
