White coral PACHYSERIS RUGOSA
CO893-9
PACHYSERIS RUGOSA is a coral from the Solomon Islands. Its rough surface and undulating plates create sinuous reliefs that sometimes resemble a miniature landscape of terraced rice fields. This branch-shaped specimen highlights the singular architecture of the species.
Once deprived of its polyps, only the white mineralised skeleton remains, revealing the complexity of its pattern. Displayed on a brass base, this coral naturally belongs in a cabinet of curiosities.
Each specimen comes with its CITES certificate, the mandatory document attesting to its legal provenance. Such authorised pieces are becoming increasingly rare, a natural consequence of stricter international protections.
