It has everything a bibliophile would want: acozy atmosphere, custom furniture, a secretary with everything you need to write and a collection of books unique in the world. And all in a mini size! This is the library of the dolls’ house of Queen Consort Mary of Teck, wife of George V.
It has electric light, running water and original objects from more than 1,500 artists such as a Fabergé mouse carved in diamond-encrusted nephrite, a Cartier lampshade and paintings by Lucy Winifred MacDonald and Harry Morley. Also everyday objects that describe his time very well, such as toilets and a set of vests to treat pneumonia.
Well, returning to the library, it is made up of 200 manuscripts by authors such as Joseph Conrad, Kypling and Arthur Conan Doyle. His little book, entitled ‘How Watson Learned the Trick’, is one of his most precious.
From consort to consort, the wife of the current King Charles III, Camilla of Cornwall, has commissioned books from 20 current English-language authors to expand the collection. He has done it now that it is 100 years since the construction of the doll’s house designed by the architect and urban planner Edwin Lutyens, in charge of designing the city of New Delhi.
Located in the Windsor Palace and with a team in charge of its maintenance, every detail is taken care of to the point that even the small bottles of wine and cava (ordered from the wineries that really supplied the British Royal House) contain the broth that it says on its label. Rich things.
