DISCOVERING CORAL

Sciacca Coral is perhaps the most mysterious coral in nature, with unique origins and characteristics in the world. It comes from Ferdinandea Island, a submerged island that appears and disappears right off the coast of Sciacca, in the Sicilian Channel. With the Coral Experience, you’ll step into our artisan workshops where you’ll discover the ancient techniques of coral masters who cut, smooth, and shape each tiny branch of coral by hand. Then, they’ll pass them to you so you can create your own unique jewel made from fossil coral, completely eco-sustainable.
