Avon Resin Sets..

A few of you left comments about the Resin Set I showed you yesterday, that I brought from Avon Cosmetics.
I found the rest of them today and thought I'd show you them all together. If you click on the pictures they will pop up bigger.
They are 1:24th scale and very detailed for how small they are. The first picture shows the Victorian Conservatory set. Then there is the Victorian Attic set, unfortunately the bottom of the mannequin has broken, but nothing that a bit of glue won't fix. Next one up is the Victorian Nursery, the only thing that spoils this set, is the rug underneath the cot, it's too thick.
The next set is called the Victorian Boudoir and last is the Victorian Parlour which I showed yesterday.
I've had a quick look on the Internet to see if there is any more information on them, but only came up with a collectible site that deals in retired Avon products and some information that an American Ebay seller has put on their page. By what I can understand Avon also did a House that hung on the wall to put these pieces in, but I don't think it was available in the UK.

  11. The Avon set is so neat. I have a bubble bath bottle that looks like a doll house book case. I love it. Avon made the cutest things. Who new they would become collector items.

  12. Your Avon miniatures look different than mine, I must get them out and have a closer look, I thought they were wonderfully made. I was able to get the house here in Canada too. You sure have some treasures!
