Why You’ll Love It
This distinguished Edwardian gentleman dollhouse doll looks as though he has stepped directly from a country estate, gentleman's club, or grand railway platform. His cheerful expression, rosy complexion, and monocle create an instantly memorable character, while his proudly rounded belly and pocket watch suggest a man who enjoys both punctuality. Crafted from porcelain, he wears a classic black tailcoat over a matching waistcoat adorned with tiny gold buttons, a crisp white shirt, elegant white bow tie, and striking black-and-white striped trousers. A glass monocle rests over one eye, while a gold-toned watch chain drapes across his vest as he checks the time. His movable arms and legs allow for natural posing.
Perfect for an Edwardian manor, Victorian townhouse, gentleman's study, formal dining room, railway scene, or a theater setting.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
