Sizes

Sizes and Scales

 Lundby and Lisa of Denmark are supposed to be between 1:18 and 1:16

Dolls


Here are four men, two of which are from Lundby.  The first one is a 1974 Lundby, the second one 1979 Lundby, The third one is also old and was sold as simply Dukkehusfamilie (dollhouse family) in Denmark (and similar in Swedish) and made by K.E. Mathiasen, and they are a bit smaller, and the last one is is from Hückel.  I have found that the second and third size looks the best for some of the Lisa furniture which is a little smaller.


The four women: 1974 Lundby, 1979 Lundby, K.E. Mathiasen, and the last one is from Hückel.

The dolls vary in size from about 4 inches to nearly 5.

Chairs

Three chairs: Lisa of Denmark, new Arne Jacobsen Series 7 chair, and Lundby vintage.  I don't have one of the older Arne Jacobsen chairs yet, they are larger.

 Update: I managed to get a couple of the original Arne Jacobsen 7 chairs.  A much better size for the Lundby dolls in my opinion.  The smaller, newer ones still look great and will go with the older, smaller dolls.

 

Arne Jacobsen's Egg Chair

The yellow chair is 1:12 scale, REAC Japan, the red is the true vintage egg chair from Brio, and the third is a newer version sold in Denmark.  Obviously the yellow chair is too big for Lundby, but it's perfect for Heidi Ott, for instance.  The middle one works best for Lundby, and the green chair is a bit on the small side in my opinion, although it's supposed to be 1:16.
