Amazing little gem full of amazing rocks, crystals, dried insects (!) and rarities. Superb little hide-out from these crazy luxury shops in the area.

Upstairs you can choose from a selection of mounted insects and they will frame them for you. They also have a few unmounted specimens for those brave enough to try it (it's really fun)!

Shopping isn’t all about clothes. I love stores that carry unique, bizarre items. With cool rocks and creepy taxidermy, it’s one of the most interesting shops in Soho. -Nina Garcia, Fashion Director

Coolest store ever! You will find the most curious stuff here. This one is a must visit in NYC - SoHo.

For the extreme scientists and fans of eccentric collectibles. This is like going to a museum where you're allowed, and encouraged, to take the display items home with you.

One of the coolest stores ever. Neat little fossil and entomological gifts. Incredible taxidermy upstairs!

if one of these creepy human skeletons has caught your eye, be aware: you can only buy one with an up-to-date medical license.

Hands down the biggest shopping destination in the city for anyone science minded. Their entemological mounts are top notch.

You can buy astronaut food, stuffed birds and human skulls, but if you don´t need this sort of stuff, you can also acquire insects, shells, or minerals, which are much more common. =P Read more

Fascinating place and completely different than any other store in SoHo, Evolution sells natural history items both cheap and expensive, but always exotic. Read more

Very cool wares and fun to browse but so expensive; who the hell is spending thousands on this stuff??

A loja perfeita para vc presentear sua namorada com um belo esqueleto de bebês siameses, sua mãe com uma tarântula em acrílico ou seu pai com um crânio autêntico de alienígena. Vem ser feliz.
Sasha TkachenkoOctober 28, 2014
Черепа, скелеты, всякая ерунда - но хочется купить все! (Человеческие - все копии, чтоб особо нервные за валокордин не хватались). Купите ребенку сборную модель черепа, в конце концов.
Anna PeskovaApril 9, 2016
хотите привезти оригинальный подарок друзьям? стоит однозначно посетить этот магазин: много таксидермии — животных и всяких букашек
