Anonymous: what does wunderkammer mean?

It means “wonder-room” in German — a “cabinet of curiosities”, as they’re often known as, in English. You can read more about them here, and if you fancy, you can see some examples at my wunderkammer pin board here.

Home of Jane Wildgoose, scanned from ‘The World of Interiors’, November 2006.

If you love wunderkammers

Please, please be my friend. I am obsessed with wunderkammers and know no one who loves them too, and would fancy a discussion of the best places to collect for wunderkammers, and so forth …
