CURIOSITY WILL GET YOU EVERYTHING

Inspired by 19th-century cabinets of curiosity, dealer Christopher Wilcox has created six different boxes of curiosity; complete with antique-print reproductions including algae, botanicals and exotic insects. Each linen box includes fourteen 14" square images and costs $168. You can find them at naturalcuriosities.com.
I've always liked these kinds of images. I'm thinking about getting a box of either botanicals or insects, framing them all, and hanging them all together on the wall of my breakfast nook. Should the frames all be exactly the same? Or should they all be different but complimentary?
