Antique Dolls House

As requested on the photo comp thread, here are a few other photos of the dolls house I saw in an Amsterdam museum. Apologies for the quality. I hope you’ll be able to stretch the one showing several rooms to see more detail.

Re: Antique Dolls House

Fantastic. I have always had the urge to make a dolls house but we no longer have the space for one. I was quite envious at first Tartlet because I thought it was your own. Love it!

Re: Antique Dolls House

Children must have been very careful with their toys in those days for them to have survived so beautifully intact.

Re: Antique Dolls House

Oooh, thanks so much Tartlet for this thread.

What a fantastic dolls house! All that oak panelling and the work that's gone into it throughout. Stunning.

I had to Googled it and was amazed to see it was c.1686 - c. 1710. I'd love to sit down in front of it and really look at everything in detail.

I wonder if it was played with or if it was just for show.
