Brolga (blue)
Brolgas are large wetland cranes. They are arguably the tallest flying birds in Australia. They live across much of north-eastern Australia, from parts of Victoria right around to around Port Headland in Broome. The brolga is the bird emblem of Queensland and features on the Queensland coat of arms.
Like most cranes, they are well known for their exotic dances when choosing a mate. The brolga builds a nest on land near the water or floating in shallow water in swampy conditions. The eggs incubate for around one month before capable young birds break out, ready to wade and forage for their own food from the get-go.
The metal frame of this bag measures 25cm across. The height of the bag (not including the closure) is approximately 20cm. The base measures approximately 25cm x 10.5 cm. It has a large internal zip pocket and a solid base. The bottom section of the bag is cork. The chain is 45cm long. The final image in the carousel shows the fabric used for the clutch lining.

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.
