This is an iris coral hairpin.
Iridescent coral is a type of coral that lives in the northern deep sea of 300m to 1000m, belonging to the "Eight-radio coral goat family", just like coral for general jewelry.
Since this coral inhabits the deep sea, it has been treated as a rare coral since ancient times, and has been prized as an ornament for noble monks' prayer beads and samurai's inro.
Currently, there are regulations such as treaties, and collection is prohibited.
Iris Coral is also registered as a gemstone and is also called [Rainbow Coral Deep Sea Pine].
