Miniature projects inspired by Queen Victoria of England for dollhouses, room boxes, and dioramas

Once upon a time, there was a queen in England called Victoria. The time period was named after her and is very often used in dollhouses too. She reigned for 63 years and 7 months and died at the beginning of the new century, 1901.

Research/ Inspiration

  • Victoria was a lonely child, not wealthy, and far down the line of succession to the throne. She was a ballet and opera fan, and played with 132 dolls, dressed in rich scraps of silk and satin, the detailed needlework done by her governess, Baroness Lehzen.
  • Victoria's granddaughter-in-law, Mary of Teck (married to George V, she wore "dog collar necklaces and frizzy bangs) had a dollhouse made in the early 1920's. It is on display in the state apartments of Windsor Castle. There is a page for this dollhouse in this wiki and it is also listed in the museum page (United Kingdom).
  • Victoria's great-granddaughter-in-law also had a dollhouse. Known as the Queen Mum, Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon's house is now on display at Glamis Castle.
