Our Past & Present:

Our family have been passionate preservationists for several generations. Now a 4th generation shopkeeper, I carry on this tradition during travels and gatherings. Bringing forth a display of objet d'art from different countries throughout the world. The museum mementos and specimens in The Altar Room all have a unique preservation story, including numerous natural history donations over the past 25 years. As the sole curator and venue host, I continue the tradition of providing rarities within a uniquely designed space for guests to celebrate, shop, and explore.
