the story behind the name

Wunderkammer, meaning ‘rooms of wonder,’ is a german term originating from the mid-16th century. The word defines just everything that contains a sense of wondrous and exotic objects. Philip, founder of Philip Gorrivan Design, is known for his eclectic taste, love for antiques, and knowledge of the arts. Over the years, Philip has curated several “wunderkammers” each filled with wondrous and exotic objects. Now, we have the chance to share these items with you. Each piece has been selected for a special and specific reason, each tells a different story, and most importantly, each deserves a forever home.
