Colorful Red Mediterranean Coral Necklace with Diamond Clasp, circa 1965
Did you know that multi-strand necklaces, where you can twist the individual strands together, are called torsades? This term is derived from the French "torsadée", which means "twisted". The beauty of such necklaces is that you can wear them with twisted strands, as well as free. The torsade here is made of Italian Mediterranean coral from the Bay of Naples. The coral has a uniform hue of intense red. A clasp of white gold and 15 diamonds holds the total of six strands together. We had the coral reknotted and the pearl silk renewed so the necklace can be worn worry-free. Today's protected stocks of some coral species, as well as the skyrocketing demand for natural coral in recent years, make coral jewelry a sought-after treasure now more than ever.
