Mahogany, Metal, And Other Styles And Makes Of Dollhouse Furniture
Mahogany Material
When looking at wood material for dollhouse furniture mahogany is a great pick for its strength and scratch resistant nature. It not only is strong, mahogany has a very rich color that attracts the eye in any dollhouse ensemble. It almost seems that a dollhouse is not complete without a piece of mahogany. Perhaps mahogany is so sought after is due to the romantic feel, in fact most victorian dollhouse pieces are made from its wood
Metal in Dollhouse Furniture
Most furniture is made out of wood, however there are many nontraditional or quirky fun pieces that need a metal material. One fine example is out door barbecues, not only are they a wonderful addition that just makes you dollhouse fun, but they would not be possible without some great metal work. Outdoors is not the only place to find metal material for a dollhouse, you will also see it in the electrical work, and laundry room.
Dollhouse Furniture for the Outdoors
Your beautiful dollhouse will be even more fascinating when you put some furniture items around the outside areas. Your attention to detail and distinctive style will be evidenced with unique items like porch swings and patio furniture. Another benefit to outdoor furniture is that they bring some attention to the stunning exterior of your dollhouse
Dollhouse Furniture: Wicker
When you really want to have some detail in your dollhouse it is time to consider wicker furniture. Traditional wicker furniture is made from vine, bamboo, or other such material. In much of the same way that it is made traditionally, dollhouse wicker furniture is built with wire or very small wood strips. It is a high quality design that you will find in outdoor sets or in some modern dollhouse sets.
White Dollhouse Furniture
White color is by far the most popular color choice in dollhouse furniture today, and it is especially prominent in bathrooms and bedrooms. It is a great color that matches any type of flooring or wallpaper. White is easily maintained, cleaned, and restored.
Dollhouse Scales: Quarter Inch
Dollhouse manufacturers use scales to help you make sure you are buying the right sized items for your dollhouse. The most popular scale for both furniture and dollhouses is the 1 inch scale. On this website, all furniture is built on a 1 inch scale unless you see ½ inch or ¼ inch in the title of the item.
This furniture piece has a quarter inch scale, otherwise known as 1:48. Every inch of dollhouse furniture is equivalent to 48 inches (four feet) of real furniture. With the quarter inch (1:48) scale, ¼ of an inch of dollhouse furniture equates to a foot of real furniture; so a ½ inch tall dollhouse coffee table would look like a 2 foot tall coffee table in reality. If your dollhouse uses a 1 inch scale, the height should be between 8 and 12 inches.
Half inch scales will have heights between 4-6 inches; for a quarter inch scale, there should be 2-3 inches between floor and ceiling.
Walnut Material for Dollhouse Furniture
Walnut is a special type of wood that grows slow and dense. Walnut has a softer brown hue that will fit with traditional dollhouse furniture. Walnut wood is optimal for kitchen sets and bedroom dollhouse sets. It is a good type of wood for furniture because it is durable and scratch resistant.
