Antique c.1900 German Metal Gerlach BASKET 1:12 Dollhouse Miniature

For sale is this RARE antique dollhouse miniature. This is direct from Europe and was purchased at a dollhouse auction in Germany.

This is a soft metal and ribbon basket for a 1:12 scale dollhouse. This is in very good condition with one side of the handle detached, and it measures 1.4" tall x 2.25" long x 1" wide. This is shown with a 5" doll for scale (not included).

See the last two photos of this item from the book "1815-1938 Magic World of Soft Metal: Dolls' House Accessories by the F.W. Gerlach Company from Naumburg" by Christian Gramatzki Swantje Kohler.

Gerlach accessories go great with dollhouse collections such as Tynietoy, which imported and sold these items from Germany in their catalogs in the 1920s.
