Curiosities & Collectables. - Shop
Some finds simply refuse to fit neatly into a category—and they are often the most memorable.
Here you’ll find the carved wooden pelican, an ornate chopstick box, the curious Coca-Cola truck and, of course, those frankly ridiculous decorative eggs. Alongside them sit rather more refined treasures, including beautifully painted Russian trinket boxes and other small objects chosen for their craftsmanship, charm or sheer oddity.
Sorry, no products were found in this category.
Curiosities & Collectables is where the unusual things live: vintage ornaments, decorative boxes, carved wooden figures, advertising collectables and intriguing objects that cannot be comfortably filed under pottery, glass, art or books.
The collection may include vintage wooden carvings, lacquered Russian trinket boxes, decorative eggs, Asian boxes and accessories, miniature vehicles, branded advertising pieces, folk art and unusual household objects. Some are finely crafted and elegant; others are eccentric, nostalgic or gloriously unnecessary.
These are the pieces that prompt questions. Who made them? Where did they come from? What exactly were they intended for—and why does somebody suddenly need one? Maker’s marks, labels, inscriptions and possible origins are researched wherever possible, while any uncertainty is made clear rather than replaced with a convenient story.
Vintage collectables may show signs of handling, age and use. Wear, losses, repairs and other condition issues are described honestly in each individual listing.
Whether you collect vintage ornaments, Russian lacquer boxes, unusual wooden carvings, advertising memorabilia or simply enjoy objects with personality, this is where you are most likely to discover something you did not know you were looking for.
