The Story: Both mystical and magical, corals have been passed from the Celts who set them on their helmets and swords, to the Chinese who transformed them into miniature talismans. A symbol of fertility in Europe, coral was considered by Native Americans to be a sacred stone capable of protecting against the evil eye. Whatever the symbolism you remember, coral enchants as much by its fiery color as by its symbolic richness.
