miniature doll

Small humanoid replica

A miniature doll is a small-scale figure of a human, typically under six inches tall, made for dollhouses, collecting, or display rather than children's play.

The term emphasizes diminutive size—a doll that is itself miniature, not a miniature version of a larger doll: She collected Victorian miniature dolls for her dollhouse.

Miniature dolls range from simple wooden figures to elaborately detailed porcelain pieces.
