    My grandad A.R Dunn was commissioned to make some marqueterie furniture for this house. The furniture that was not chosen was saved and given to us grandchildren for our own house which also had water and lighting

      Thank you for sharing that information about your 3 great grandfather. What I think is great is that you took the time to know your family and the stories of memories. I wish more people could see the importance in details like you have shared here. Some might say silly things however each piece of this mini doll house played a part in the time, work, and the tinnest details. For me wouldn't it be a dream to own that, and the history with all the peoples names to who handcrafted each detailed art piece. Your grandfather's mini work of artific is outstanding along with the area artist's handcrafted mini pieces.

    The consigned artists that created each piece were fabulous in their professional miniature artistry. I'm always in awe of the meticulous details that created such a masterpiece, beyond craftsmanship. Just beautiful. There was a huge dollhouse, prior to this one that has a light and accessible water wherever there was a faucet. Magnificent!

    When I first heard about Queen Mary's Doll House, I couldn't believe this magnificent piece of art actually has running water and working elevators. Its just mind boggling even for a guy who has nothing to do with dolls.

      As a miniaturist (we're not all into dolls either, btw) I love it as a work of art, but what I still find sad is that the Queen's dollhouse had running water & its own plumbed-in toilets at a time when many of her subjects still shared outdoor unplumbed outhouses, communal 'steamie' laundries or public bathhouses.

    Thanks so much.That was adorable. Do you know if Queen Mary's Dolls' House has a dollhouse? Slightly crazy question I know. I can see a theatre in the nursery but no doll house. I am writing a book of 1:6 DIY furniture designs.
    I remember reading that the omission of dolls was deliberate-because the makers did not wish to represent the Royal Family as dolls.

      She was married to King George V. She was originally a Danish princess and became mother to King Edward V111, who abdicated in 1036 and became the Duke of Windsor. His brother the Duke of York then became King George V1, and was father to our Queen Elizabeth ll.

    Since my fantasy of Queen Mary quietly making herself some dolls to actually play in this house is set in the past and provably untrue, I will now fantasise about some very fancy rats being given the run of this place in the future. With all that effort and closework-blinded embroiderers someone needs to play with it!
