To test and identify an original Red Coral gemstone:
- Color Test: Soak in milk; original coral may slightly alter milk color.
- Turmeric Test: Rub with turmeric; genuine coral does not stain.
- Acetone Test: Cotton dipped in acetone; genuine coral surface unaffected.
- Surface & Touch: Check smoothness, granules, and consistency. Original red coral is even, natural, and free of fake inclusions.
Note: Gemological lab certification is recommended for definitive authentication.
