Antique Dollhouse Dining Room Set

Here's my most recent find, not yet arrived, but I couldn't wait to post it. It's an almost complete set of dollhouse dining room furniture made in America circa 1910 by the Star Novelty Company of Cincinnati, Ohio.


The set includes 3 chairs (there should be one more, but it's gone missing), table, buffet, and china cabinet. The chairs have leatherette seats, and the whole lot is made of oak. It's in a large scale (the tallest piece measures 8 inches tall) almost sized more for small dolls rather than dollhouses. Can't you just picture this little one sitting here? With a little tea set on the table, and dishes in the cabinet....oh, I can't wait for it to come so I can play with it!

  1. You really know how to get MY attention!! :) I have been watching your recent posts but I'm on such limited 'blog' time at the moment I haven't been commenting much (even this minute I'm naughtly and playing hookey from my assignment) but as you know there's no way I could let this one slip by. Wonderful find!!

  2. Hi Norma,

    I've missed seeing you here! Glad you liked the little furniture: I've added some more pictures, just for you. Once it arrives, I'll load it up with dishes and dollies, and take some more photos.
