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.

Small enough to sit in your palm but every inch a dragon, the red-eyed crocodile skink wears rows of spiny, keeled scales down its back like a crocodile and a blaze of bright orange around each eye. It’s one of the few lizards that actually ‘talks,’ squeaking when alarmed.

A Crocodile in Miniature

Rows of hard, keeled, spiky scales run down its back and tail, giving this tiny skink the armored look of a miniature crocodile — a true pocket dragon.

Fire Around the Eyes

Vivid orange-red rings circle each eye, the striking feature that names it and gives it a permanently intense, dragon-like stare.

A Lizard That Talks

Unusually for a lizard, it vocalizes, letting out squeaks and calls when distressed — and may even play dead, going stiff when handled.

A Devoted Parent

Among the few skinks known to show parental care, it is a charming oddball of the New Guinea forest floor — here rounded into a plump, armored little dragon.

“A palm-sized dragon with fire-ringed eyes and a crocodile’s back.”
