Description

Considered a lucky charm or material for jewellery and works of art, red coral has mesmerised humankind since antiquity. But who are the people behind these precious objects?

A young narrator and her grandmother embark on a journey to meet the passionate experts of red coral. She interviews a historian, diver, biologist, taxonomist, coral hunter, and many other specialists who answer her questions, with the hope of turning readers into ambassadors and protectors of the mysterious treasure.

Blending science, history, and culture through investigation, interview, and illustrations, The Mystery of the Red Coral is as gorgeous and surprising as red coral itself.
