Default Working with red tree coral

There seems to be an abundance of red coral being produced by a
factory in South East China such as this necklace
http://www.silverstall.com/costume/gemnecklaces.htm which is composed
of fragments of red coral mixed with a resin. It is mounted on a
coconut back using a hot-glue gun which so far seems to have caused no
problems There is also a variety of 'red coral' such as this pendant
http://www.silverstall.com/silver/pe...red-coral.html
where the coral is processed with mangrove for which we have used
epoxy 220.On Mar 2, 4:48 pm, Red tree coral, as i understand it is an
endangered species and its use may cause problems.
