Painted firetail
The painted firetail finch prefers arid and semi-arid zones, seeking out acacia and spinifex near water in gullies and gorges. In the wild they feed on the seeds of spinifex and other native grasses and occasionally on fruit.
They breed most of the year round, engaging in elaborate courtship displays involving picking up and dropping twigs and rocks, twisting of tails, hopping and bobbing up and down and puffing up their feathers. They nest near the ground, well hidden amongst spinifex or other grasses. Young are fed for around five weeks and being to display courtship behaviour at the ripe old age of ten weeks.
Product variants
glasses slip cases
Our glasses cases have a sturdy canvas outer printed with our own designs. They are lined inside and feature a padded layer to provide protection for your glasses cases while taking up much less room in your bag than a hard carry case.
They fit most glasses, being 10cm across and around 20cm tall.
They're durable and washable and customers report the fun bright prints make them easy to find in your bag.
Handmade with love
Every fabric used in our glasses cases 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.
