Discover the extraordinary story of Sciacca coral — one of the rarest and most historically significant Mediterranean red corals — in this beautifully crafted hardcover publication by Enzo Liverino.
Found in the 19th century near Sciacca, Sicily, Sciacca coral is celebrated for its remarkable fiery orange, salmon, and golden-yellow hues, often marked by distinctive brownish patterns created through ancient volcanic activity. Formed over centuries through underwater eruptions and geological transformations, this rare “volcanic coral” became highly prized in antique jewelry and decorative arts throughout Europe and beyond.
In SCIACCA CORAL, Enzo Liverino shares an exceptional journey through the history, artistry, and cultural significance of this remarkable natural treasure. Combining meticulous historical research with a deeply personal family legacy connected to coral craftsmanship, the book offers readers a rare insight into the world of Mediterranean coral and coral jewelry heritage.

“For centuries, corals have captivated naturalists, divers, scientists, and artists alike.”
“Yet few have dedicated themselves as wholeheartedly to understanding, preserving, and honouring these natural treasures as Vincenzo Liverino.”
