Understanding Dollhouse Scales: Inch Scale
Dollhouse manufacturers use scales to help you make sure you are buying the right sized items for your dollhouse. On this website, all furniture items are on a 1 inch scale unless the title of the item says otherwise. The most popular scale for both furniture and dollhouses is the 1 inch scale.
Most dollhouse furniture, like most dollhouses, are built on a 1 inch scale (also known as 1:12 scale). Every inch of dollhouse furniture is equivalent to twelve inches of real furniture. For example, a dollhouse dresser that is 4 inches tall represents a 4 foot tall real dresser. There are other scales, but they are less popular and common
So a 2 inch tall dollhouse coffee table would look like a 2 foot tall coffee table in reality. In other scales, such as half inch and quarter inch, less than an inch represents a foot of real furniture.
understanding Dollhouse Scales: Half Inch
To make sure you are getting the right sized item, check the scale of the furniture. At Dollhouse City, unless the title of the furniture item tells you it is inch or inch, the item is built on a 1 inch scale.
This item is built on a half inch, or 1:24 inch, scale. This means that half an inch of dollhouse furniture represents a foot of dollhouse furniture. So, a 3 inch dollhouse sofa represents a 6 foot real sofa. Other scales include the one inch (1:12) and quarter inch (1:48) scales.
To figure out which scale your dollhouse uses, figure out the height from floor to ceiling of one level of your dollhouse. If it is between 8-12 inches, it is most likely a 1 inch scale. If it uses a half inch scale, the height will be from 4 to 6 inches; quarter inch scale dollhouses have heights of 2-3 inches.
