     Miniatures are a specific genre and are prized by many. Miniature art focuses on much-smaller-than-usual sizes. A good definition is that miniature art can be held in the palm of your hand. To make a small doll, the machinist and the artist must work together. The wood can be delicate and the painting must be detailed. Miniature dolls make a unique addition to any nesting doll collection.

Many forms of miniature nesting dolls were made during the "vintage" era, which was not that long ago. You will find a variety of them here.
