About this product
On a slow afternoon, pull a drawer at random and find a fern pressed flat in pale stone. This is a small wooden cabinet of nine drawers, each opened by a tiny brass knob, lined with a strip of felt, and holding one quiet marvel beside a handwritten paper label.
It is a wunderkammer in miniature, the cabinet of curiosities that furnished the studies of naturalists and collectors long before museums decided what belonged where. Its drawers held whatever seemed worth wondering over, sorted by nothing stricter than the collector's own attention. Ours keeps that spirit: a chip of iron meteorite heavier than its size suggests, a shark's tooth turned entirely to stone, a curl of pale birch bark, and others, gathered for curiosity alone.
