Beautiful necklace. I love the “rough”, white areas.
Sure looks like natural red coral to me.
From what I have seen, dyed coral tends to be more opaque. Some of these pieces appear to be translucent.
Can you move some pieces to look where the hole was drilled? If dyed, the hole may be a lighter color.

Beautiful! I think it’s natural. There is a lot of color variation here that looks like nature did it. Seems like dyed would be more uniform and what I see is a lot of different shades even within a singular chunk.
