Description:
What a lovely dining room set made by the miniaturists Jennifer and Herb Bennett in 1" scale. The set consists of a round table, which can be opened up to take an extension--the workmanship of this table is so splendid, it opens up very smoothyly and has the tiny inserts on the extension to fit inside just as a real table would; when extension is in place, the table becomes oval. There are 4 lovely chairs with tiny club feet and attractive back splats. All of the china cabinet's doors and drawers open. This set is so beautifully and precisely made, one would think by looking at the pictures that it is a full size dining room. The set looks to be made from oak, just as the originals would have been, with a beautiful tiny grain and a lovely finish. All in great condition with no breaks or repairs. I have tried to show how lovely this set is with numerous photos. Signed as shown in the photo. Made in 1977 and 1978. Information on this miniaturists couple can be found in the book, "Through the Looking Glass" and Miniature Makers Marks. Height of china cabinet is 6 1/4", length is 3 3/4". Length of table with extension is 5 1/8" and height is 2 1/2". Height of each chair is 3 3/8".
