U.G.L.Y. #8 – Drifter

Not lost, just differently directed.

Meet Drifter, U.G.L.Y. #8.

A substantial 7.67 carat solid Australian opal from Mintabie, South Australia, Drifter carries her history openly.

Across her pale, translucent body are prominent natural sand and matrix inclusions, surrounded by genuine flashes of green and blue with touches of warmer colour appearing as the stone moves through the light.

These characteristics haven't been hidden, disguised or polished away. They're the very reason Drifter was chosen for the U.G.L.Y. Collection.

U.G.L.Y. — Unconventional • Gems • Legitimately • Yours celebrates Australian opals that don't fit the traditional idea of perfection. Natural inclusions, unusual formations, unexpected patterns and individual quirks aren't treated as flaws here — they're part of the stone's story.
