scope note

These were people who, historically, specialized as harvesters of coral who brought raw coral to workshops where it would be processed in a variety of ways to sell as jewelry or for other uses in a global coral trade centered in Italy. In the late Medieval and early modern Mediterranean this was a specific occupation, often with its own guild (in places such as Genoa).
