Wunderkammer: The Collection of Susan Beech

Museum of Craft and Design
San Francisco, California
October 4, 2025 –February 8, 2026

The 17th- and 18th-century Wunderkammer, or cabinet of curiosities, was a private collection of marvelous objects, reflecting the owner’s sensibility, including curiosity about new worlds being opened by exploration. In this exhibition, visitors will get a glimpse of San Francisco Bay Area collector Beech’s expansive, sometimes surreal sensibility, as reflected in nearly 100 works from her sumptuous and eclectic assemblage of art jewelry.
