A treasure trove of playful eccentricity, with a small dose of high drama. The Curious Department is a London-based design studio and online boutique that specialises in the creation of unique gifts and unusual homewares, including limited edition art, ethical taxidermy, decorative soft furnishings, fine bone china tableware and award-winning stationery, all proudly made in the UK. Propelled by the notion of transformation, The Curious Department’s passion is to take the under appreciated aesthetics found in nature, and transform them into unexpected mesmerising objects of beauty. In a world where interior mediocrity is mass produced, and design blandness comes neatly flatpacked, The Curious Department strives to embrace the eccentricity of clutter, clashes and the uncommon, with a splash of opulence and dash of art deco. Everything you find in The Curious Department is handmade in the UK, using British-sourced materials and local expertise where possible. As seen in The Independent, Evening Standard, Period Living, Homes & Antiques, Mad About The House and more.
