Anyone know about doll's house scales?

[verds]

Having never had any interest in doll's houses until now, I need help...

I bought a lovely Asda house for my little girl: this one

Now the furniture is sold out, so I'm looking for something to furnish it with. But it doesn't say what scale the house is. Does this vary? I've done quite a lot of googling and found 1/12 and 1/24 and now I'm confused.

Any experts who can advise? Thanks in advance for any help with my piffling problem, which seems a little more confusing than it is due to late pregnancy!

I cannot quite remember what it is but the majority of dolls houses are made to the same scale.. We have a le toy van one and I have bought all sorts of different makes of furniture and they have all been the right size.. Soup dragon on lordship lane has a good selection Of furniture and makes as well as le toy van houses so may help you get some idea of scale.. Also you can get furniture on amazon and the descriptions on there sometimes have the scale in them too..

Hope this helps a bit....

sue ryder (charity shop) had some amazing dolls house furniture quite detailed but still toys - not the collectors stuff.

also playmobil furniture seemed to be a similar scale and sylvanian families stuff. they are all very similar in size

best of luck

Thanks - that's very helpful. In my day, we got toilets made of cardboard and thought ourselves lucky!
