Opened in 1899, this Seattle waterfront shop is an entirely unique shopping experience. Check out their website and you will see what I mean. Items for sale as well as curiosities on exhibit. Buy some jewelry or check out Sylvester the very well preserved mummy. Buy some Native American art or have your fortune told by Estrella the mechanical fortune teller. Need some Seattle trinkets to bring home, or maybe you just want to see a walrus skull with 3 tusks, this is where to go.

A LIFELONG PASSION FOR CURIOSITIES was inspired by winning the book Wonders of Nature in third grade for having the neatest desk. Joseph Standley (1854-1940) became an avid collector of Indian and Eskimo artifacts, as well as natural curiosities. He opened Ye Olde Curiosity Shop in 1899 to house the many unusual artifacts that he had collected. Though it’s changed locations a few times, the century-old shop and much of the original collection remains today, passed down through four generations. Among its many wonders, the collection includes a large display of shrunken heads, a three-tusked walrus skull, a working merry-go-round organ, a narwhal tusk, and a pair of famous mummies.
