An antique Singer sewing machine made before 1930 was likely built to last generations, many are still fully functional today thanks to their cast iron construction and purely mechanical design. Some early Singer models were even operated with a foot pedal treadle, meaning they worked completely without electricity. This is a perfect miniature replica!

Some miniature scenes contain thousands of individually hand-painted figures, each posed differently, just like this one...

Just a relaxing morning at the dollhouse 🏡

Doll houses are likely one of the oldest and most popular types of miniatures. The first ever dollhouse was recorded in the mid 1500s and we are so happy to continue this legacy and history with our collection!

Space just got a facelift 🚀

Our hard working team just finished repainting some of the iconic miniatures in our space display! Even if these miniatures look like they’re lit from within, it is actually reflective and glow in the dark paint that does the trick. We absolutely love this display and can’t wait to share it with you! 🪐🛸

The joust is a really complex miniature display that has actually a lot of work underneath!🏰🏇

It has a full mechanical and digital system that makes the two jousts compete with each other and even picks a winner!

Come check it out 🎠
