Tomo Tanaka Nunu’s House Bakery Café Espresso Stand Miniature

Why You'll Love It

This charming artisan espresso stand vignette by Tomo Tanaka of Nunu’s House captures the cozy atmosphere of a neighborhood bakery café counter in remarkable 1:12 scale. The display features a black painted wooden riser stand labeled Bakery Café, topped with a beautifully detailed miniature espresso machine and a collection of tiny café beverages. Four different coffee drinks and cups accompany the machine, each sculpted with impressive realism—from creamy foam and rich espresso tones to the delicate shape of the cups themselves. Unlike many miniature scenes, each element in this set is separate and movable, allowing collectors to style the display freely within their miniature cafés, bakeries, or kitchen scenes. As with all of Tanaka’s work, the craftsmanship reflects the extraordinary realism that has made Nunu’s House one of the most admired names in Japanese miniature artistry.

Tomo Tanaka is internationally celebrated for his Nunu’s House miniature food creations, widely regarded among collectors as some of the most realistic and meticulously handcrafted miniature foods in the world. Each piece is sculpted entirely by hand using clay and mixed media, with careful attention given to color variation, texture, and proportion. Because his work is rarely distributed outside Japan, Tanaka’s creations are highly sought after on the secondary market.
