📍 Via dei Mercanti, 8, 10122 Turin TO

Nautilus Antiques is a one-of-a-kind shop located at Via dei Mercanti 8 in Turin, in the heart of the historic center. More than a simple antiques store, it presents itself as a modern-day wunderkammer , a chamber of curiosities where science, art, and the bizarre intermingle. The space houses an extraordinary collection of macabre, whimsical, and scientific vintage objects, capable of captivating collectors, scholars, and the curious in search of the unusual.

The shop's selection includes historic medical and surgical instruments, anatomical models, death masks, plaster casts of rare diseases, phrenological heads, fetuses in formalin, stuffed exotic animals, and taxidermy curiosities such as Siamese pigs, mummies, and human skeletons. Alongside these artifacts are fossils, antique maps, vintage enamel signs, esoteric medical equipment, and historic signs, transforming every corner of the shop into a journey through the history of medicine, biology, and the scientific imagination of the 19th century.

Nautilus Antiques is a must-visit destination for collectors of rare objects, lovers of the obscure, and natural history and science enthusiasts. Each piece is authentic, expertly selected, and exudes an aura of mystery and decadent charm, perfect for decorating studios, galleries, boutiques, or creative spaces seeking character.

The shop stands out within the Turin scene for its originality and its atmosphere, somewhere between a museum and a cabinet of curiosities. Visiting Nautilus Antiques means entering a world where the unusual becomes beauty, and the unusual becomes an object of contemplation and wonder.
