Impressive Collection of Antiques

by SaltyLakes at Citysearch

While Obscura lacks in its customer service and its ability to hold normal store hours, it makes up for it in product. Excuisite Victorian taxidermy, Masonic reliquerly and medical antiques are packed into this tiny, morbidly charming shop. Be sure to call ahead to see if they are open.

Obscura houses a fabulous array of oddites and collectables! This is a one stop shop for collectors or the macabre, beautiful and bizzare. Victorian hair wreaths in prestine condition, antique medical tools you never new exsisted, rare taxidermy and so much more. While all items are fairly priced the only draw back is that they are rarely priced! Even with that and the strange hours the store keeps, Obscura is a one of a kind emporium for all things rare and unusual.

• Pros: amazing pieces, fairly priced
• Cons: strange hours, items not priced
