Bamboo Coral is one of the few coral species not subject to species protection. In its natural form, it is beige to grey in colour and is traditionally dyed and processed as a sustainable alternative to protected red stone and branch corals. The porous, lightweight material absorbs colour particularly well. The vibrant red colour gives this strand a lively, expressive appeal.

Bamboo coral mainly originates from the Pacific and Indian Oceans.

Note: This strand consists of dyed bamboo coral.
