STUART
Most of this family is from the time of Charles I, just before or during the English Civil War. I think men have never looked as good as they did in this era. Women were graceful and relatively comfortable, while children looked delightful. But then, I am a hopeless romantic. New work has begun to expand the scope of this Stuart section.
You don't see many dolls houses built in the Stuart style, but the family could quite well inhabit a Tudor house or even a tavern.

This lady is from the time of James I, around 1605. Notice how her dress is the same style as that worn by the Grandmother some years later. She cannot be repeated exactly, but I could do something similar for £55 |
