Description: 3 strands Red Bamboo Coral which has been treated by being dyed. Bead Necklace w/ Carved Genuine Mother of Pearl Flower Clasp. All Red bamboo coral is dyed as it would otherwise be white. if you break bamboo coral it is white inside. 3 strands: 16 inches, 17 inches and 18 inches long. However the string was stretched when the beads were knotted and the string has contracted making the string too tight. The beads lay a little twisty. I am discounting the price because of this. New eBay rules state that:Natural gemstones that have been treated must include "Treated" in the Item Specifics and description of your listing.Specify clearly in the title that the gem is treated- "treated coral"Select the treatment type in the item specifics - "dyed"include the following treatment details in the description:Treatment type -"dyed"Disclose that the treatment is not permanent and loses its effect over time- "Red Dye made fade over time, if bleached or left in the sun."Disclose that the treatment has a significant effect on the gemstone's value - "White bamboo coral is pretty worthless, dying white bamboo coral red increases the value slightly. Red bamboo coral is still worth significantly less than any color of real Mediterranean coral."Describe any special care requirements for the gemstone to retain the benefits - "Keep dyed bamboo treated coral out of the sun and away from harsh chemicals." Sorry - I list the dyed material because I have it and it fulfills a price point. It is also to let you know that I know the difference and I will always tell you the difference - I have the real stuff in other listings. I combine shipping.
