Eastern koel and white fig

The eastern koel are migratory fruit eaters that prefer warm climates. They forage in the dense foliage of trees bearing small fruits in open woodlands or the outer edges of forests. The female lays a single egg in the nest of another similar sized bird (often friarbirds, crows or honeyeaters), abandoning it to be hatched and raised by the other birds. It is thought that the koel’s eggs have evolved to mimic the eggs of their primary hosts, so the introduced egg goes unnoticed.

The white fig (Ficus virens) also takes advantage of a host, germinating in the canopy of another tree where it grows until its roots reach the ground. At this point it takes off, eventually strangling the host tree and becoming a freestanding tree.

The top of the purse frame measures 11cm across. The height of the purse (not including  balls) is approximately 13cm. The final image in the carousel shows the fabric used for the purse lining.

Title:
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.
