Laughing Kookaburra Paperweight Whistle
We have run out of stock for this item.
Did you know when you hear the chuckle of a kookaburra it is no laughing matter? Rather, it is a warning to other birds to keep clear of its territory.
The largest of Australia's native kingfisher varieties, its name, 'Kookaburra' is derived from the Wiradjuri* name 'Gugubarra'.
*An aboriginal dialect from the traditional custodians of the lands surrounding Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, known as Wiradjuri country.
Each Songbird paperweight whistle is skilfully hand-shaped from clay, fired, then hand-painted by our team of creative artisans in northern Thailand. Because of their handmade nature no two birds are the same, making them even more unique and characterful.
- Featuring a single note whistle.
- Presented plastic-free, in a fabric gift bag with story card.
- Designed in Australia
- Ethically handcrafted in Thailand
Please note our paperweight whistles are:
