Uluru



What colour will Uluru be when you see it? Will it be deep red, as it catches the first rays of sunrise framing its 348m ancient sandstone formation or a different colour at another time of day or year? Located in the centre of Australia, this amazing World Heritage Site is undoubtedly the country’s most iconic natural wonder and the world's most massive monolith.

Inspired by the mystical beauty of Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock, the square painted glass bead on this necklace captures your imagination as much as the ancient rock paintings drawn by the Anangu people - the traditional landowners of Uluru. A single red glass bead dangling at the tip brings to mind the flaming sun as it rises and sets beyond the horizon of the Australian Outback.

Many stories surround the massive monolith, passed down generations through Tjukurpa, or known by non-Aborigines as“dreamtime stories”. Whether you've set foot yourself on Uluru's arid terrain, or explored the famed 36 rock domes at the nearby Valley of the Winds in the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, the awe-inspiring Red Centre... and perhaps, this little piece of jewelry... are definitely the stuff of dreams.
