A rare off white variety of coral, known as angel skin, which is white with a tinge of pink or peach, has become very popular today and is used to adorn precious and simi-precious metals such as gold and silver. Black coral, one of the most beautiful and fascinating of coral species, grows in waters off the Hawaiian Islands and Mexico.
