This antique store is an absolute wonder. Shelves hold antique medical instruments that look like they’ve stepped straight out of a Victorian anatomy lecture. Tucked into a corner is a delightful surprise : a tea nook hosted by a resident’tea witch’. Yes. Exactly as charming as it sounds. The owners are refreshingly open to conversation , happily sharing how they’re still restoring certain pieces. That quiet dedication adds another layer; this just isn’t a shop, it’s an evolving collection. A vintage floodlight projector and taxidermy specimens caught my eye. Some places sell antiques. This one tells stories.

Wow this place is cool! We bought a couple odds and ends. The service was fantastic. Very creative people inside this place. I enjoyed all the little oddities and unique items that were all over the shelves. I highly recommend you stop by.

The first oddities shop I stepped into in Colorado and still my favorite. One of the best and most ethical in the country by far. They continue to build out and improve an already well organized space. Their dedication to a clean, well stocked, and welcoming business are incomparable. The renovations to the tattoo shop upstairs are truly breathtaking and the artists have been kind and always professional.

I’ve upset myself in the sense I have yet to review your lovely establishment! 😭 The gifts I receive from here are always so thoughtful and I personally go feral for their little book section every time I visit!! (Yes. Every time.) The apothecary is the cutest lil thang since Polly pocket and the teas are so good! 🥹 The vibe is 👌 and the people are so incredibly sweet, patient and knowledgeable. 10000000/10 recommend dropping by.

Absolutely love this shop. Every time I've been in, there's new things to look at and new books in rotation. The staff is knowledgeable and excited to educate anyone and everyone about whatever their heart desires. If you've ever been curious while passing by, I'd say stop in and check it out. I guarantee you'll find something you've been looking for-even if you don't know it yet.

this shop has been one of the most welcoming and interesting places i have found in denver! from their ouija board table that moves, to their tiny apothecary, to their back-alley circus every month! grateful to their staff who are always quick to help whenever i have questions. they have the best, weird, one-of-a-kind pieces like these:

I bought my favorite pair of coffin nail earrings from The Lemur a few months ago, and was devastated when I lost one the other day. I reached out to the artist (luv you Catelyn!!!!!) and was able to order another pair!! While I was in the shop, I was able to pick up some awesome metal numbers for my door. Once I get those up, I’ll post pics! The mystery bag is next on my list of purchases……
