Peek inside an $8.5 million dollhouse

- Опубликовано: 6 дек 2015
- If you think dollhouses are child's play, you haven't seen a dollhouse that's on display in New York. Michelle Miller reports on the Astolat Dollhouse Castle billed as some of the most costly real estate in an expensive city.
I can't believe how rude they were being! It's not obsession obviously people want to see it. Stop treating it like it's nonsense just because it's not important to you. Ugh.
I agree!
Brittany Derby it's so beautiful and I have to say this.... Gimme, gimme, gimme, I need to play with it.
I like the word passion rather than obsession. Passion is love .
ok
Luvdamommy CBS likes to twist things for their own agenda
I think obsession was the right word.real stones in jewelry? Realy
Right, it's just something that people have passion for. It's so sad that people call it an obsession when it's just a wonderful piece of art...
@@jeanettereynolds3151it’s super tiny/ it’s art
The reporter was very rude. I also think she was confused and she didn't understand how much time and effort goes into making a doll house; let alone one to this degree. But that is no excuse for being rude I think it would have been more appropriate for someone else to have done the interview.
Lorie Willis Your photo is beautiful, I love your smile 🙂 it's lovely to see someone so happy. So thank you for making my day x
Lorie Willis I think you misinterpreted her attitude
She could have maybe read up on miniature houses and the effort that goes into creating even one piece of furniture and showed a little more appreciation for the craftsmanship instead of just focusing on the pricetag.
Lorie Willis still not worth 8.5mil dollars
Lorie Willis Stop jumping to conclusions, you might hurt yourself.
Those who say that the creation of this master piece was a wast of time and effort have no idea what art or passion is, and I pity them, as they likely have little enjoyment in life because of that fact.
And those who say that they should have spent their money and time on other people are hypocrites, because you are no saint, and the charity work the owners of this work of art are doing now is likely more than you've done in your life.
Each piece in this doll house was hand crafted, undoubtedly the work of an artist throwing their all into their own passion of creating, and to see the work of so many come together in such a way is a privilege to behold, and those who don't understand that are terribly privileged themselves not to recognize it.
Angelofthursday 99 I'm crying because of your comment. It feels great to know someone out of most people appreciates and understands each artists' effort and passion for their work. It's just really amazing 💖💗💗
@@prplram of course, it'd be more strange if people don't appreciate this. It's a freaking masterpiece and every piece is crafted and it works, books you can read, jewelry with real gemstones, mini bottles filled with actual spirits, the amount of thought and detail put into it is crazy
A glorious masterpiece and inspiration to those of us who try to create, no matter how meager our budjets. Too, most of the dolls houses of high caliber have historically been displayed to raise money for charitable causes.
Please fire that interviewer immediately. Glad that lady handled her own and calmly explained. She’s probably the type that only lets her kids play sports and nothing else. That house took so much time and effort it’s really a work of art.
Pretty amazing but you could buy a real mansion with that kind of money!
I have that doll house
😂😂😂😂😂😂😘😍😍
Anjana Karki sure you do🙄🙄
Anjana Karki wow u are sooo rich not😒
3 mansion!
Anjana Karki you wish
Interviewer was almost condescending... snobby idk but she didn't seem to appreciate the artistry.
She should have not been put on this interview
This seems like something I would attempt to build but never finish due to my obsession with detail.
Like, not just making it real but making the books be readable, the sink useable, the lights real, all that stuff
Who ever made this has got my respect.
You should see queen Mary's dollhouse then, you'll love it!
Yes we're both perfectionist
I'm sorry if it's weird to comment this far in the future, but you should check out Where the Gnomes live! She's made the most amazing working dollhouse and she shows you how to do a lot of the technical details like lights and bookbinding.
ew, i dislike the interviewer she doesn't understand this kind of art and sees it as a joke.
Arlette Galarza it IS a joke. people r starving & crap like this is flaunted
People will still be starving, whether or not someone chooses to have a hobby with their hard-earned money. You have hobbies and have bought things worth more than a meager sum, just to enjoy it, I'm sure. Besides, they are giving money to charity, which was stated in the video. Don't be a sanctimonious hypocrite. I mean, it's bad enough you can't even understand what is plainly stated. Don't make yourself seem even more stupid, yes?
Dude I am poor and with enough practice and time I could build a dollhouse worth a few thousand at least. It's worth that much because it took so much time and skill to make - but then I guess you're one of those people who thinks artists should work for nothing.
Almost every single one of the items in the house is handcrafted, and most are one-of-a-kind and take hundreds of hours to complete. The purchase of these handcrafted miniatures provided work to artisans around the world.
Arlette Galarza ..... THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOUUUUU, for your comment! I was so disgusted and angry that I had to come to the comment section to see if I was crazy or if people felt the same anger as I did. I will say 100% honestly, 9.5 times out of 10 I don’t give a crap and nothing really bothers me but just the way this “news reporter”/bit*h was through out the entire interview, it was so rude... UGH I WANT TO SCREAM AT HER.
OK! I’m done now. Thank you in advanced for letting me vent to you and I love your comment... You said it perfectly but I just had to add more and get it off my chest :) Have a good day!
2023- I enjoyed re-watching this video. It reminded me of why I started building Barbie doll houses from cardboard- it is my passion. It allows me to express my creativity. I love doing it with cardboard boxes because they are strong and last. When I am through I can throw them away. The furniture I make I can store and keep. Any furniture I purchase I can store and keep. Building Barbie doll houses is a work of art and a OOAK. Building any doll house is a work of art! I love this doll house. Beautiful.
I have put together a dollhouse and decorated it with paint/ wallpaper/ lights & soforth as well as bought and make items . It truly is a joy and (not going to lie) a little irritating at times but just seeing the love and time spent on these works or art of people of all ages is truly awe inspiring . I love when i see children get involved with design as well as set up of rooms and play . Everyone has their own hobby and as long as we can experience and learn from others interests it's all good. Just be respectful and open your mind to crafters of all mediums.
when a non-toy collector/maker asks, "Do you play with it?" Ugh!! I hate it when people ask me that.
Edit: I had no idea that people were responding to my comment all these years, but to answer your most common question: Im offened because people ask it in a derogatory way. If they were being nice and curious I would find no offence.
fangwolf9209 triggered. not that serious dear, calm down.
fangwolf9209 I get what you're saying but It's a *toy* something made for playing with.
haha, no. those are not toys, they were not created to be such and if they were played with they would break even in gentle hands. like the original dollhouses this one is not a toy for playing but a piece of art that is meant to express the societal ideals of housekeeping and home ownership in a very flagrant and ostentatious way. this is as much a 'toy' as a baker's oven
technopoptart but bakers make things in their ovens as a job, what are you supposed to do with a doll house? and if it's not a toy then whys it called a doll house when people are supposed to play with dolls?
and running a home used to very much be a job(for some people it still is). doll houses, up until the 1900s were primarily teaching aids and proof of income. the youth would have the house to learn the proper placement and function of things while the house itself stood as a testament to the quality of actual home the adults kept
also, dolls serve many functions outside of just 'play'. you are attaching a very limited and contemporary view of dolls onto a very old institution(though even now there are many dolls that are not made to be played with). dolls have functioned as teaching tools for many millennia and houses for dolls have been around nearly as long
also, i did not claim that all persons who own a baker's oven are bakers. some people like to buy things they dont need/use just to have them, like a baker's oven
Arrietty would love this. 😍
Yeah but her dad wouldn't XD "The beans call this a dollhouse, dolls are toys for beans, we are not toys."
Jaquio de Mieux Her dad is unfair! OMG! XD
Yaaahs. hahaha
Random fandom ..the whole family would:) Awesome comment :)
random fandom I was thinking the same thing!
I know this is old, but for those of you who don't make miniatures and/or dollhouses, tiny things are expensive. The food on that table alone probably cost over $200. The rugs and carpets were probably a few hundred more. Then you factor in building materials that run into hundreds, for a much smaller house and multiply that by 28 for all the rooms. A genuine silver tea service - oof. I won't even price them. This builder obviously spared no expense and I can see this adding up into 8 million. I'm remodeling a house from 1890 and I'm already a few hundred dollars into it; it's still a shell. There's nothing inside - the walls are bare wood planks, the floors are bare, the 36 windows each need to be restored and dressed. It has five doors, five porches, three floors, everything. I'll be several thousand into it until all is said and done. Teeny tiny infant dolls run from $20 up into the hundreds. Dog figures, nice ones, are also a mint. As the woman said, it adds up.
Me: who would buy that
Me again: **counts money** 25 CENTS! WERE GETTING THERE!
HAHAHAHAH
For anyone wondering, they started in the 1970's so thats over 40 years of small change. It adds up
My parent's friend had a three story dollhouse miniature that stretched about 25 feet wide. Back in the 80's he sold it for over a million. Lived in San Francisco, was big in the Miniature Society, and was in charge of costumes at the Bohemian club. Smoked, got emphysema, and lived on an oxygen tank for five years before passing.
Well that went South fast...😮
Sorry I know I'm a year late. 🤦🏻♀️
Oh wow, this is truly a masterpiece. That interviewer needs to stfu. This woman has brought this broke girl so much joy, her spending her money in this way is beautiful and impressive. I appreciate it. What say you have her do? She is passionate about dollhouses and chose to share it positively with the world to inspire us to create something of our own. What a lovely work of art. I love miniature anything! ❤❤❤
there's even doll inside the doll house
batsu chan wow who would've known
batsu chan lol
Batsu Chan lol
They should have put a dollhouse of that dollhouse inside the dollhouse :)
I loved when she said: "I call it passion"
This is nothing compared to Colleen Moore's castle in Chicago's science and Industry museum.
8.5 million!!!??! It better come with running water, heat, and electricity for that type of money
It probably does. One of the most expensive parts about building a dollhouse is making sure the miniature actually works. The most expensive doll houses are lit with electricity, and do have running water too.
Its so beautiful and the attention to detail, truly a masterpiece!
Excellent video - which I found informative. i liked both the content and the witty delivery. I would like to see a whole programme on this Doll's House, room by room, as someone has thought the whole creation out precisely.
It could even be an entire show! An episode per room, making and purchasing of new furniture, a second season after it's been rearranged!
Well, if I was a borrower this would be great!
i wish i was omg #thesecretworldofarietty
Love it! Thank you for sharing this masterpiece! The rest of us dollhouse customizers have found inspiration in our creative builds the day we watch it! Merlin is a fantastic addition! What fun! I understand that the owners did not spent 8.5 million on this project. I have over 80 dollhouses in my collection and I always buy them for less and then customize them with my crafting skills and attention to detail and it makes them worth so much more in the end! They are a great investment! I have dollhouses I purchased and renovated that went from being worth $20 to thousands of dollars! That is the power of talent and creativity! I hope they generate lots of money for the children's charity! It's such a great attraction to bring awareness for the kids and to help raise money for their charity! Thank you for sharing! It's inspirational!
I would rather buy a mansion than a dollhouse that I couldn't even fit in
Pretty sure anyone who originally had this made, already owned a mansion :)
Its so expensive because its so old and contains even more antiques.
@@TheBeanHome rather own 2 mansions. Instead of 1 mansion and a dollhouse 😂
I would rather spend it on the homeless thanks 🇬🇧
This dollhouse is amazing and everything but just imagine what I could do with $8.5 million I can buy a big house with my family two cars so much clothes and shoes I would just be living the life with $8.5 million but for a million dollar house you’re Tripping lol 😆❤️😘💪🏼🤙🏼
How could you forget FOOD!! I would live the love of eating the food I can gettt
Nobody is tripping but your stupidity.
its stunning to see the details of the candles, furniture and dishware.
It's beautiful! The detail is amazing! wow!
Wow! That is truly some dollhouse!!! I have never seen anything else like it anywhere but it is beautiful. If I were a wealthy person with plenty of extra room for something like that, it would make a valuable collector's piece or conversation starter.
Published on my birthday. I'm an Architect who loves dolhouses.
I need to be miniaturized! Also, that reporter was sp condescending in something she obviously knows nothing about!
This doll House is so cool as a little girl I love doll houses....love it😘👌💯
I love dollhouses that are Fully detailed ^^
This is the most gorgeous doll house I’ve ever seen… I agree about the reporter… If you’re not into it you just don’t get it… I love miniatures!
Holy crap I thought this was a play house for a kid inside a mansion until I saw the close up detail, this is really pretty art
This is absolutely incredible!!! So much detail. The reporter was definitely rude. She didn't understand the craft at all.
AMAZING! Just stunning!
That’s not a dollhouse. That’s a miniature of a castle/estate. The miniature world and the adult doll collecting world of hobbies are not the same thing.
Why would you spend 8 million for a doll house when you can buy basically the same thing as a REAL house for the same price. I’d say that doll house is worth thousands, not millions.
I LOVE SMALL DETAILED THINGS OMG
I love dollshouses and have several myself but that price tag is rediculous
Me: *tries to make this but sets house on fire*
One little piece of AWESOMENESS! Beautiful.
I know that I'm late to the party here, but I feel compelled to make a comment. The reporter obviously doesn't know anything about the fact that making certain miniatures is an art form. I became aware of this years ago, and have seen some incredible examples of this in a toy and miniature museum in Kansas City Mo. There are pieces of furniture and even an entire room from the Palace of Versailles that are absolutely exquisite! As far as I'm concerned, they have every bit as much value as famous and costly paintings, sculptures, etc. Most people just don't have any clue about the skill required to replicate these items in miniature.
who would buy a dollhouse for $8.5MILLION seriously ,I loveeee dolls but 8.5MILLON DALLAR DOLL HOUSE
So neat!!! That reporter was very rude and condescending. What an amazing dollhouse and a fun hobby to have. They are really nice to have as decorations. I am getting one because it will be fun to decorate ,my parakeet will love playing in it and I think that they look lovely in homes. That reporter was so rude.
and the rich get richer.....
I love this so much! I’ve wanted to do this forever and I finally kinda have the means to do so. I’m going to make a very beautiful and lush Barbie house. 💕 Should I post the process on this channel or make a new one for it?
This is amazing!
I understand the level of detail, materials, and hours of work put into this piece, but how does it receive an 8 million dollar appraisal?
good interview I really enjoy watching this
Barbie : Ooh thats a pretty house
Realtor : ok that will be 8.5 million
Barbie : um... Yeah I'll go back to my dream house
Beautiful amazing outstanding Presentation 😘💞💟 💞💞💞😘
OMG I'm gonna sell my 8 milion dollar mansion and buy this ASAP!
good choice, I'm proud of you son.
Atleast you won't get robbed
28 rooms 😱☺
I would love to see this.
Thats so pretty!!!! Omg!!!!!!
I have a large collection of the inside of my house, I'm getting ideas on how to create, thank u for this
If it's not hurting anyone, let people have their hobbies. No need to be condescending and say it's an obsession. I think if it was truly a psychological obsession, it would be inside the person's house and they would probably not leave its side very often.
That doll house is worth $7,925,000 more than my actual home.
Hm. I thought the one at the Museum of Science and Industry was the most expensive. Go fig.
aren't reporters should be open minded about things lol
Beautiful 😍 ❤️❤️😍❣️ Very nice Doll house 😍😍
It's very beautiful but imagine having to keep all those pieces dust free!
it's beautiful
I want to buy this how can I got this
I literally love tiny things and I'm on the middle of putting together a dollhouse of my own but it's super small compared to this one because its a starter one but I get exhausted working on it since it's my first one 😂 I would die if I tried to make it be as close to this
Wow that is fantastic!!
their is no way that is the most expensive Dolls house in the world what about England's Queen Mary's dolls house that is huge and belonged to Royalty
Frozen Ice Queen Elsa Or the Colleen Moore dollhouse in Chicago. That one is way more valuable.
@@waypay1 That's in Chicago? Chicago's like an hour away from me. Gotta go see it.
@@tiredlez2394 Yep. At the Museum of Science & Industry.
@@waypay1 Thanks
Reminds me of The Secret World of Arrietty and The Borrowers. In that someone was so intrigued with the little people that they made tiny scale working models of ton's of things just for the Borrowers. Of course they never took them because they were unique and believed that they would be missed if taken. But still that would be interesting to see.
architecture decor editorials should be pop up books no if and bust about it
Beautiful outstanding amazing Doll House,😘😘💞💞💞🌼💞🌼🌼💞🌼💞🌼💞🌼💞
8500000 USD for a piece of toy !! I mean seriously dude ?!! what a waste of money huh.. !!
She asked if the interviewer ever rearranged her house, not if she ever wanted to buy new furniture. Lol
Beautiful!!😍😍😍
It's interesting to see but I love a different style. And a workhouse is a hobby in which you spend money over the years. I really don't want to know HOW MUCH MONEY I have spent over the years in my doll collection. But it doesn't mean that you can sell it for this.
I wish I could have it........ but where am l going to get money 🤔
Little girls who dream about this kind of dollhouse will see this but never get to touch or play with it
that's my grandfathers dollhouse
Nay nay L really
Killer love tHaTs My GrAnDfAtHeRs DoLlHoUsE
How did they make it i want to make a barbie castle and i want on just like that one
Reminds me of the dollhouse in Arrietty
Doesn't hold a candle -of any size- to the Queen's dollhouse. In it, you will NOT find bulky, cheap looking miniatures (like that stool featured above at timestamp 2:17. though, the sofa is well made). In the Queen's dollhouse, everything is perfectly proportioned -and, if it's supposed to, works as it should. Also, check out the traveling White House miniature.
So so nice 😍😍😍😍
Some people are multi billionaires and to them this is pocket change but to most this could house a few people or set a family up for life. They are not wrong for spending this kind of money on a dolls house if they have never known any different they are not at fault..... they can not help the life they was born into any more then the poorest of people can. I personally would not spend such huge life Changing amounts on such an item as I know what it's like to go without bare essentials at points in my life. If they got to see how others lived it would change their views, but I think it's lovely they have shared this so others can see and enjoy and appreciate it's beauty. What a thoughtful lovely thing to do.
+Bonnie Nash Please stop being a negative Nancy and realize that this is art, but useless to you if that’s the case then museums are useless,music is useless, animation is useless, and everything else that goes in to the category of art is USELESS.
8.5 million is a *subjective* number: as in it's the price tag the owners *wish*. It's not what it cost them to make it, and it's not what the market price would be. For collectables, it's only worth what the highest bidder is willing to pay.
Imagine dropping that or shaking it 😢💀
I love the doll house god bless that lady she is so intelligent jai Shri Krishna
Beautiful outstanding amazing cute 🤩.
8 million dollars... but wants to raise money for charity🤣 I guess to make them seem less grossly socially irresponsible.
Right. The dollhouse kits are bad in price, it’s the furniture
Shid u gone pay 4 that like u gone have it for life wtf
I want to be a doll now,To live in there 😂😂😂
I want it really bad but my parents won't let because is expensive I would play it tho
Oh my god
Its so beautiful
would you not love a doll house like that?
Colleen Moore's dollhouse was better.
I love the doll house
It's incredible!
Fantástico eu amei. 🥰👏👏👏👏👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤❤❤❤
Why on Earth would you buy a dollhouse that cost 8.5 million...
Why would anybody even think about buying a dollhouse instead of a real house.
