    Amazing little gem full of amazing rocks, crystals, dried insects (!) and rarities. Superb little hide-out from these crazy luxury shops in the area.

    Upstairs you can choose from a selection of mounted insects and they will frame them for you. They also have a few unmounted specimens for those brave enough to try it (it's really fun)!

    if one of these creepy human skeletons has caught your eye, be aware: you can only buy one with an up-to-date medical license.

    Shopping isn’t all about clothes. I love stores that carry unique, bizarre items. With cool rocks and creepy taxidermy, it’s one of the most interesting shops in Soho. -Nina Garcia, Fashion Director

    One of the coolest stores ever. Neat little fossil and entomological gifts. Incredible taxidermy upstairs!

    For the extreme scientists and fans of eccentric collectibles. This is like going to a museum where you're allowed, and encouraged, to take the display items home with you.

    Hands down the biggest shopping destination in the city for anyone science minded. Their entemological mounts are top notch.

    You can buy astronaut food, stuffed birds and human skulls, but if you don´t need this sort of stuff, you can also acquire insects, shells, or minerals, which are much more common. =P Read more

    Черепа, скелеты, всякая ерунда - но хочется купить все! (Человеческие - все копии, чтоб особо нервные за валокордин не хватались). Купите ребенку сборную модель черепа, в конце концов.
