Flame-backed fiddler crab

The male fiddler crab has one huge claw that he uses for fighting with other male fiddler crabs. Often, a show of arms is enough and the guy with the biggest equipment wins without a fight. The claw is also shown off in courtship. The waving motion the crab makes with its giant claw gives the impression that he is playing a fiddle. This is where the name comes from.

Flame-backed fiddler crabs, confusingly, have a black back but their legs are red. This has led to the use of another name, Darwin red-legs. They live in mud and sand in coastal areas and are often found around the edges of mangroves.

The top of the purse frame measures 7.5cm across. The height of the purse (not including  ball closure) is approximately 10.5cm. The final image in the carousel shows the fabric used for the purse lining.

Made in Australia

Handmade with love

Every fabric used in our bags and purses is designed by Boo at Susurrus Studio in Darwin River, located an hour south of Darwin in the hot tropics of Australia. Boo draws much of her inspiration from her bush environment, especially the birds and flora of the Top End and across Australia.

The fabrics are printed with care in Sydney. When they arrive, Boo steps away from the design table and leans into the sewing machine to hand craft each item.
