This beautiful red coral and freshwater pearl necklace and matching earrings will add a bright spot of color to any outfit.  The classic style features red coral and freshwater pearls.

The origin of coral is explained in Greek mythology by the story of Perseus.  Having petrified Cetus, the sea monster who threatened Andromeda, Perseus placed Medusa's head on the riverbank while he washed his hands.  When he recovered her head, he saw that her blood had turned the seaweed into red coral. Thus the Greek word for coral is "Gorgeia" which was one of the three Gorgons.
