    Coral is calcium carbonate, like limestone, marble, pearl, aragonite, etc. The 'fizzing' from vinegar is a chemical reaction. This is a destructive test and should b done w caution. A polymer coating will block that reaction.

      Your absolutely right, Tango, thanks for your response. The vinegar reaction to the coral acts quickly and discoloration can follow if not careful. 👏

      Hi, Martinez family. My insurance appraisal is typically $125 each. I have other opportunities, such as cataloging, which lists many items that can be used for Trust Distribution.

    Not exactly. Jadeite comes in an array of different colors…all shades of green, yellow, brown, pink, lavender, blue, white, black, red, icy clear, and it can be opaque to highly translucent. Nephrite can come in dark or spinach green, white, or light browns. It’s almost always opaque. Both minerals are dense and can feel cold to the touch. Jadeite is also slightly harder than nephrite.
