Collyer's Mansion

On the Grid : Collyer's Mansion

"Boasting two Brooklyn locations (its original opened in Ditmas Park), Collyer’s Mansion is named for the Collyer brothers who collected 140 tons of items including: tapestries, glass chandeliers, 25,000 books, potato peelers, rusted bicycles, dressmaking dummies, guns, pinup girl photos, the chassis of the old Model T, and 14 pianos. Definitely more organized, but capturing the same off-kilter charm, the boutique features original objects from international artists and locally crafted jewelry." - Brooklyn Digital Foundry

"This sweetly curated home goods shop in Brooklyn Heights—a worthwhile trek in of itself—stocks artisan-made goods with a slightly nordic bent, from Mid-century style furnishings to ceramics, lighting, throws, and more. The art on the walls changes frequently, as does the stock—while it's named for the fire fighter's term for a hopelessly cluttered home (after the Collyer Brothers who collected north of 140 tons of stuff), the stores are anything but. "
