V: 4504: THE KITCHEN TABLE.

The Queen's Dolls' House, one of the most remarkable models of modern times, complete in every detail, boasts of a Kitchen containing everything for culinary requirements, of which the Kitchen Table is naturally the centre. This is here shown separately, with a variety of the miniature Doulton crockery, and, as befits a Queen's kitchen, solid gold moulds, a gold frying pan, etc., etc., all correct to the scale of one inch to a foot.
