White coral-POCILLOPORA MEANDRINA
CO488-8
POCILLOPORA MEANDRINA, known as cauliflower coral, grows in the shallow waters of the Solomon Islands, where sunlight is strongest. It develops in compact, rounded masses. The living polyps, often pink, cover granular branch tips that look more like raspberries than cauliflowers!
Once deprived of its polyps, only the mineralised skeleton remains: a brilliant white structure revealing all the density and complexity of its architecture.
Displayed on a black base, this coral naturally finds its place in a cabinet of curiosities.
Each specimen comes with its CITES certificate, the mandatory document proving its legal provenance. Such authorised pieces are becoming increasingly rare, a natural consequence of stricter international protections.
