Ocyphaps lophotes, the crested or topknot pigeon is a medium sized stocky bird found throughout mainland Australia in rural and urban lightly wooded grasslands that have water access nearby for daily drinking. They have a distinctive sharply pointed, grey-black crest, a light grey body with lovely pinkish brown touches, a loud coo-whoo or coo call and make an iconic whistling flurry of wingbeats when they take flight.

Pixie Nut & Co. first began in 2016 with a range of recycled greeting cards, and has since expanded into a beautiful collection of Australian-inspired accessories and clothing. Designer Philippa works from home in an off-grid community in Northern NSW, surrounded by subtropical rainforests. 

"I’m originally from Perth where I draw much of my inspiration. Western Australian is so beautiful, I went up and down the coast a lot as a kid. I’m also inspired by my current surrounds in the Northern Rivers and all the amazing bird life here and various road trips around the country, especially the red center. I'd always wanted to be an illustrator or fashion designer so it’s really cool that I've ended up doing something in-between where I can explore both dreams. I studied a diploma of fashion design and technology and an advanced diploma of set and costume design at WAAPA." Pixie Nut & Co.
