Dollhouse
Small replica home
A dollhouse is a miniature model of a house, typically furnished with tiny replicas of furniture and accessories, used as a toy or collector's item.
Children play with dollhouses by arranging rooms and moving small figurines through domestic scenes.
The word also describes anything diminutive and perfectly appointed: The cottage was a little dollhouse.
Figuratively, a dollhouse suggests something precious but confining—a pretty cage.
