A thing of beauty..

Some quick photos of my beautiful mini wall-unit/room divider made by Mitchy Moo Miniatures.

It's based on a G-Plan Librenza 880.  I wanted a piece that was more similar in style to the 1950's version of the Librenza 880, but had the dimensions (slightly lower & wider) of the later 1960's version.


Pepper did a great job translating this into miniature & I feel really honored to own one of her pieces, it's beautifully made & just what I wanted.  The piece is made of spruce, stained in dark oak, with white formica fronts on some of the cupboard doors.

It arrived almost a week & a half ago, but after what must have been some rough handling by Royal Mail (grrr!) the top section of the Librenza had shaken loose in transit.  I ordered some of the same wood glue that Pepper uses, & with some helpful advice from Pepper, was able to re-attach it.  Hopefully it looks OK, I was very nervous about doing a poor job & spoiling it.

All the cupboard doors & drawers open & I'm looking forward to digging out more miniatures to display on it & taking some better photos of it (once my current bout of vertigo has passed & I stop feeling dizzy & disorientated every time I move).  The Re-Ment displayed on the Librenza so far are from the 2005 Table Ware Collection set.
