If you are a collector of dolls house miniatures and you appreciate the art of creating exquisite handmade pieces then you are looking at the right website.
Here you will find a constantly evolving collection of miniatures from some of the leading international makers. Share in their enthusiasm to reproduce the quality and detail of the original piece in 12th or 1 inch scale.
Many of these artisans have their miniatures exhibiting in museums around the world such as The Miniatures Museum of Taiwan, www.mmot.com The Kentucky Gateway Museum Center, USA www.kygmc.org and A World in Miniature museum at Houghton Hall, England www.aworldinminiature.com
Other world reknowned places to visit for inspiration and admiration are The Thorne Rooms in Chicago and Queen Mary’s Dolls House in Windsor, England.
You don’t have to be a discerning collector or understand why many of these miniatures are of museum quality. Close examiniation reveals the accuracy to their original counterpart and the lengths the artist goes to to recreate the finish and charm of each piece in scale.
I attend as many of the top international miniature shows around the world not only as an exhibtior but also as a visitor, from Tom Bishop’s Chicago show, Kensington Dolls House Festival, 1zu12 messen in Germany, Molly Cromwell’s Sarasota show, The Netherland dolls house show and many of the national shows in Spain, Denmark, Portugal and Italy. Please see my show listing for full details of the one nearest you.
Each miniature item is attributed to its maker, you can search through the categories or by a specific artist. There are many well known and collected makers featured here. Pocket People’s Sarah Hendry, Silke Janas-Schloesser, David Booth, Michael Walton, Lucy Maloney and Tarbena’s Alan Barnes to name a few.
