I have some dolls who are staying here now, so I'll show them very soon.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11859849266660930171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1661402712471442035.post-33413718570155592272013-02-19T10:48:27.033+09:302013-02-19T10:48:27.033+09:30Like some of the other commenters my first thought...Like some of the other commenters my first thought was Noah's ArK. The house has a boat shape and the animal motifs would suggest that. This is such a delightful house with such unexpected details like the round passages from room to room and the fancy valences at the ceiling of each room. This truly is a treasure. You must really be enjoying it.<br />SusanShalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12152225087778289655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1661402712471442035.post-27532862888139500822013-02-15T23:20:46.334+09:302013-02-15T23:20:46.334+09:30Perhaps I'd better find out what cooking and s...Perhaps I'd better find out what cooking and sleeping arrangements there might have been in Moorish-style dwellings? Or, if it's a movie set or something similar, then perhaps the wardrobe is for costumes, and the table and dresser for eating food brought in from outside ..... I've been looking at dolls who might like to live here, so we'll see!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11859849266660930171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1661402712471442035.post-83027726614849735942013-02-15T23:17:46.646+09:302013-02-15T23:17:46.646+09:30Hello Marta, thank you!

Perhaps that explains why there is no European style kitchen...or beds. I agree with Phillip in that it too reminds me of a 30s movie set. Wonderful find Rebecca!Florinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05487255851413103894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1661402712471442035.post-42076502865119806712013-02-13T22:17:45.062+09:302013-02-13T22:17:45.062+09:30Hello from Spain, i like this vintage house.
