Peculiar Curiosities

Step Into the Strange: Discover Our Peculiar Curiosities Collection

At Grim Reliquary, we celebrate the weird, the whimsical, and the wonderfully offbeat. While our main collections focus on handcrafted replicas, dioramas, displays, and magical books, there’s a whole other realm of oddities that simply defy categorization. That’s where our Peculiar Curiosities collection comes in.

This is the corner of our crypt where imagination runs wild. Think of it as a cabinet of curiosities—but one carefully curated by a passionate artist with a flair for the unusual. It's an eclectic ensemble of handmade pieces that don’t quite fit the mould, and that’s exactly what makes them so special. From bizarre relics and cursed objects to mysterious finds from alternate timelines and long-forgotten civilizations, our Peculiar Curiosities are here to delight, disturb, and captivate.

What Makes a Curiosity Peculiar?

The short answer: it’s something you never knew you needed until you saw it.

The long answer: Peculiar Curiosities are handcrafted creations that blend horror, fantasy, history, and mythology into truly one-of-a-kind works of art. Each piece tells a story—some ancient, some otherworldly, and some just plain odd. These items are perfect for collectors, home decor enthusiasts, or anyone looking to add a little mystery and madness to their space.

Some of our favourite Peculiar Curiosities include eerie relics, preserved oddities in jars, eldritch totems, forbidden texts, and long-lost artifacts from cursed tombs. Others are playfully sinister—a Mandrake in its pot, a eerily lifelike taxidermy creature, or a potion bottle with unknown (and probably dangerous) contents. If it feels like it should be locked away in a dusty Victorian library or kept under glass in a haunted museum, it probably lives here.

Made by Hand, Made with Heart (and a Touch of Madness)

Every item in the Peculiar Curiosities collection is handmade and made-to-order, which means no two are exactly alike. That’s part of the charm. These pieces are crafted with the same care and attention to detail as our more well-known replicas—sculpted, painted, and weathered by hand to achieve a level of authenticity that mass-produced collectibles simply can’t touch.

From the textured surfaces and subtle shading to the aged finishes and realistic details, our curiosities are made to feel real. Whether it’s a cursed relic pulled from a forgotten catacomb or a fictional field specimen from some uncharted planet, you’ll find yourself wondering, “Where did this really come from?”

A Perfect Fit for the Weird at Heart

If you’ve ever felt drawn to the strange, the spooky, or the surreal, this collection was made for you. Our Peculiar Curiosities are ideal gifts for the macabre-obsessed, the fantasy-fuelled, and the sci-fi curious. They're conversation starters, centrepiece stealers, and little reminders that not everything has to make perfect sense to be perfectly wonderful.

They’re also a fantastic option for decorating haunted homes, goth-inspired interiors, game rooms, libraries, and anywhere you want to inject a little otherworldly flair. Whether you’re looking to build your own cabinet of curiosities or just want that one piece that makes guests raise an eyebrow, you’ll find it here.

Keep It Curious

Our Peculiar Curiosities collection is ever-expanding, as we’re constantly dreaming up new creations that challenge genre, style, and reality. Some are darkly humorous. Some are downright chilling. Others are just plain weird. But every single one is a labour of love for the strange and unusual.

So if you’ve been searching for something unique—something with a story, a soul, and a bit of mystery—look no further than this collection. Peculiar Curiosities isn’t just a product line. It’s a celebration of the odd and the obscure, handcrafted for those who find beauty in the bizarre.
