Evolution Nature Store

West Village, Chelsea & Meatpacking District


In the market for a shrunken head? Perhaps a dried scarab beetle? This SoHo favorite has display cases full of strange finds from all over the world. The store is cavernous and often busy, especially on weekends when people doing the SoHo boutique crawl wander in to ogle the oddities.
