THE UMBRELLA OF FRIGHT · flares its frill
A Series of Laugh and Grow
Real animals, reimagined plump and cheerful — painted in lifelike detail, sculpted impossibly cute.
Chubby & Full of Character
Rounded, soft and undeniably cute — yet every scale, wrinkle and marking is hand-painted true to the real animal. The reaction it gets in person is always the same: so detailed, and so adorable.
Ready to Display
A single, sturdy hand-painted piece — no assembly, no fuss. Set it on a desk or shelf and it holds its happy pose, ready to collect and show off.
Most of the time it’s a slim, unassuming tree lizard — until it’s threatened. Then the frilled lizard snaps open an enormous ruff of skin around its neck like a startling umbrella, gapes its mouth, hisses, and if that fails, bolts away upright on its hind legs.
The Frill
A large fold of skin around its neck, normally lying flat, springs open into a wide, colorful disc when the lizard is alarmed — making it look far bigger and more dangerous than it is.
A Two-Legged Sprint
If bluffing fails, the frilled lizard turns and runs on its hind legs alone, frill flapping, in a comical but effective dash for the nearest tree.
All Show
The whole dramatic display is pure bluff — a harmless insect- and small-prey eater making itself look terrifying to buy time to escape.
An Aussie Icon
Famous the world over for its umbrella-like display, the frilled lizard is one of Australia’s most recognizable reptiles — here rounded into a plump, frilled figure.
