Field notes
Why it belongs
Natural-history shop, antique store, jewelry studio, bookshop, art gallery, home-decor store, bath and gift shop, and oddities cabinet.
Its displays move between the genuinely old, scientifically strange, handmade, decorative, and macabre without settling into one normal retail identity.
Founded in 2008 and originally associated with San Francisco's Haight Street, Loved To Death now operates a physical shop on Main Street in Placerville. The current store draws together antique taxidermy, natural-history pieces, medical curiosities, Victorian-inspired objects, handmade jewelry, art, books, crystals, soaps, décor, and other unusual finds. Its dark parlor atmosphere makes browsing feel somewhere between antique hunting, gallery visiting, and exploring a carefully arranged cabinet of curiosities.
