THE HOUSE'S STORIES

Wunderkammer · objects of wonderA small collection of minerals and artist's pieces dotted around the house. To look at, not to touch.

Over the years the house has gathered small objects of wonder: minerals, agates, geodes, the odd artist's piece. They're there to be looked at — many children are fascinated by them. They're original pieces, and we ask you not to touch them (the agates are fragile).
