Up for auction is a charming, eclectic estate collection of vintage dollhouse miniatures and tiny decorative knick-knacks, perfect for collectors, crafters, or vintage enthusiasts. Everything shown across the photos is included in this single, comprehensive lot. Featured & High-Value Items: • Authentic Vintage German Egg Cabinet ("Eier"): A highly sought-after, premium 1:12 scale wooden kitchen cabinet by renowned West German manufacturer Bodo Hennig. Features a beautifully slatted swinging door with a red knob, delicate top molding script, and includes three tiny miniature eggs hidden inside. Bodo Hennig "Eierschränkchen" (Egg Cabinet), Model No. 896. • Premium Quality Brass Lighting: Includes a rare, notably heavy double-arm student lamp with dual opaque white enameled shades, alongside a traditional amber-tinted glass hurricane oil lamp with solid brass bases. • Handmade Textiles & Novelties: A trio of beautifully framed miniature needlepoint floral wall art pieces in round wooden frames, a small wooden toy train locomotive, miniature brass candlesticks, a tiny copper kettle pot, and a miniature farmer figure. • Holiday & Seasonal Accents: Festive Halloween items featuring a black cat perched on a pumpkin, a playful bat figurine, a Jack-o'-lantern, and miniature winter floral arrangements. Bodo Hennig was one of the most prominent and respected names in high-end West German dollhouse miniature manufacturing. Founded in the mid-20th century in Wildpoldsried, Germany, the company became legendary among collectors between the 1960s and 1990s for creating meticulously detailed, 1:12 scale wooden furniture and working utility appliances. Unlike cheap mass-produced plastic toys of the era, Bodo Hennig products focused heavily on realism, utilizing fine natural woods (like beech and pine), operational tiny metal hinges, and authentic cultural details. The brand is celebrated for preserving traditional German domestic designs in miniature form, which makes its discontinued pieces highly collectible today. Pickup category timeslot {A}
