Coral has been used by tribal artisans for over 600 years. There are many types of coral used. You will find coral mixed with sterling silver and turquoise in many forms of Native American jewelry. Coral was first introduced to Southwestern tribes such as the Navajo, Zuni and Hopi by Spanish and European traders, who had a steady supply of coral mined from Mediterranean coastlines. The coral came in many shades, from deep red to orange and even white.Coral is highly-prized as a substance believed to be endowed with mysterious sacred properties. It is a symbol of modesty, wisdom, happiness and immortality.
