Very Rare Original Antique Victorian Child's Miniature Wooden Dresser w/Drawers & Mirror, c.1880

Miniature of Adult Size, For Use in Playhouse or With Dolls, Etc.   

DESCRIPTION: Very rare original ANTIQUE VICTORIAN MINIATURE WOODEN DRESSER w/MIRROR & DRAWERS, Etc. Scans show in detail.  In very good condition. Made of oak, like the period adult size version. Most of the original varnish still remains. Nicely nailed together. Has fancy period decorations, candle stands, and shelf, etc.  Drawers open and hold things. It couldn't be more nicely made or more functional!!

Well made, c.1880-1890. During this period miniature items of the adult versions were extremely popular. I have seen quite a variety of items such as early Edison record players, flat irons, telephones, and of course a variety of dishes and tea sets. Obviously, this was not intended for a dollhouse, but would have been perfect for a child's room or a separate playroom, etc. Kids liked to be like their parents and this was a perfect way to do it, just like they do these days. My children had miniature lawn mowers, chain saws, tool sets, and other similar items.

Was well taken care of by the original owner as well as by succeeding families and owners over the years. Could have been part of an entire collection of miniature "child-size" items. 

Measures about 24" high, x 16" wide, x 8" deep. Mirror measures 8" wide x 4 1/2" high.

You won't find many items like this, this early, nor many in this nice condition!!!  Great for a collection or a HOME OR SHOP DISPLAY. If you like antique doll or play house items THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION. Condition is excellent overall. 

VERY RARE ITEM AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT!!!!
