Lilliput Lane

Lilliput Lane
Founded in September 1982 by David J Tate MBE, his dream was to capture the architectural heritage of Britain in the most authentic, detailed miniature sculptures ever seen.
 
Each and every Lilliput Lane miniature is completely hand crafted by skilled artists on the original site in Penrith. The cottages are based on real buildings and many collectors enjoy touring the country lanes in search of the actual houses.
 
From photographs, the internet and sketches, up to forty different processes then follow to produce a complex series of moulds from the original sculpture. There is no room for error, as the original wax sculpture is lost during the the process! Every tile, slate and flower is individually applied by hand to build up the different textures and details.
 
After being sealed and dried once again, the model passes to a painter. Up to thirty different colourways can be tried and checked for authenticity before a master version is chosen for each cottage. Every skilled painter has to match each of the models they paint to the master version, to ensure that each is consistent.
 
Finally, cottages are baized and labelled, before a final quality check ensures that they leave Lilliput Lane in perfect condition.  No seconds are ever kept; if they do not pass strict quality checks, then they are destroyed.
