Paxton Gate

So, with Keeping Portland Weird I stopped by Paxton Gate PDX today. What a WEIRD place. From animal Skulls, taxidermy, plants, butterflies, crystals, gems, and other weird things.

There are a lot of plants for sale here which a lot of people don't know about.

If you collect skulls this is the place to come!!

They even have a large selection of gems, rocks, crystals, and butterflies.

Everything in the store is for sale including the taxidermized animals.

You can even buy a full-size water buffalo!!

Paxton Gate has a deep fascination and respect for the natural world. Part of their philosophy is ensuring that their product offering is ethically sourced. They originally started in San Fransico and now have a location in Portland Oregon. You can find them online here: Paxton Gate: Curiously Mind-Expanding Treasures & Oddities. If you like to visit the Portland store they are located at 4204 N Mississippi Ave.
