Sleek, striking, and unmistakably Australian, the Red-Bellied Black Snake is an iconic creature native to eastern Australia, it glides through forests, swamps, and creek beds with grace. Its deep, glossy black upper scales shimmer while its vivid crimson belly gives it its name and unmistakable contrast.
Despite its intimidating appearance, the Red-Belly is shy by nature—preferring to slip away unnoticed rather than confront. But when threatened, it can flatten its body and flare its colours in a dramatic display, a reminder that beauty in nature often comes with a warning.
With its rich colour palette and cool composure, the <b>Red-Bellied Black Snake fits comfortably amongst its other reptilian cousins in our wildlife collection, The dial is a bold, high-contrast homage to its beauty. At its core, a blazing crimson gradient radiates outward, fading into deep black along the edges - mimicking the vibrant underbelly and obsidian back of the <b>Red-Bellied Black Snake. A sharp, scale-textured pattern overlays the dial, creating depth as though the snake's skin itself has been preserved beneath the glass.
