My latest collection of dollhouse miniatures comes from the estate of Lucy Ungerman Seiler, a woman whose life was defined by creativity, curiosity, and an enduring love for small-scale worlds. This is a very large and diverse assortment of miniatures and I'll be hosting 7-day auctions (weekly/bi-weekly) beginning on Sundays in my eBay store starting early in March and extending through the end of Spring 2026. Be sure to bookmark this GALLERY PAGE as I'll be updating often with previews prior to each sale. More about Lucy Seiler HERE.
This is one of the most extensive collections I've ever worked on, spanning across multiple categories, genres and scales. It includes carefully curated artisan and quality-crafted commercial miniatures in addition to delightful miniatures made by Lucy herself while attending countless workshops and seminars and a lifetime of learning from some of the most noted instructors in the miniatures world. This assortment will appeal to collectors across the spectrum of interests and tastes and I hope will inspire and move some of you in new directions!
