My New (old) Gottschalk Doll's House



This lovely house is all original. I believe it is from 1913. It was built in Germany. It is the smaller 3/4" scale.

    Oh, what a sweet little house that is! It has such charm and I love the many porches. It would be fun to try to make a newer but 1:12 scale version.... although it would probably make it lose all that charm! I love the old wood details!

      I think Gottschalk made a similar house in 1/12th scale, but it would be great to have a new one that looks the same. Go for it!

      I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It looks so good for its age.
