How to wear it

Opt for neutral bases such as white, beige, gray or light blue, they will make the bright colors of the necklace stand out.

Play with the harmonies of blue, by choosing a top in a similar shade (denim, sky blue) for an elegant continuity.

Wear it over a slim turtleneck or a simple graphic t-shirt to add an artisanal touch to your outfit.

Prefer a single strong central piece, like this necklace, rather than several imposing pieces.

High-waisted jeans, a plain t-shirt, and this necklace are enough to create an inspired, lively and original casual look.

Wear it with a simple, monochrome dress (e.g. black or navy blue dress) so that the necklace becomes the statement piece of your outfit.

Why are these pieces of jewelry called "Coral"?

The name "Coral" does not refer to marine coral, but to the coral snake, recognizable by its colored rings.

Originally, the patterns of these handcrafted pieces are inspired by the colors and bands of this snake.

Over time, they have been offered in many color variations, while retaining this natural inspiration.
