We Love Curio Obscura

Posted on 2:29 PM by Unknown

Sweetie and I absolutely love Pandora Wriggleworth's Curio Obscura shop. It's full of clever gadgets, priced reasonable, and the shop itself is a hoot.

Most people never realized it, but the old shop was a giant mechanical insect-like creature. Well, spider-like, as it had at least eight legs.



Visitors could drive it from a cleverly disguised control room.



When Sweetie and I visited last week, we discovered a new and larger, but still mobile stucture.


Like its predecessor, it has legs. These are fancier-- they're shod.


The head is a magnificent blend of ship's prow and Crap Mariner's head.


Inside, clanking and hissing steampunk machinery is everywhere.




I'll write about some of Pandora's great products in my next post.
