Some of the Favourite sets we've sold
In the two years that I've been running Sylvanian Families Specialty Store, there have been some amazing little collectible vintages sold in our store.
Once they are sold, they are often removed from our online store (meaning they don't show up on google in future).
So this blog article will help to share a few of those fabulous little favourite items. They may have gone on to other wonderful collector's homes, but you might still enjoy a look at them.
Sylvanian Families Radio and Camera Set 3158 Tomy
This set above is the early Sylvanian Families Tomy Radio and Camera set. It's very sought after by collector's and a hard to find item as it's now around 30 years old. A gorgeous little set.
Sylvanian Families Sophie's Dolls house is another sought after set. It features Sophie Snowbunny and her miniature houses. This was released twice, and each release had different colour dollshouse roof.
Sylvanian Families Sainsbury's Grocery Store - SF 4510
I love this little set with John Sainsbury, the grocer bear and he was hard to part with.
Released around 2010, this set was based on the UK supermarket chain Sainsbury's and was an exclusive item, which could only be bought at Sainsbury's stores across the UK.
Sylvanian Families Fish and Chips Van
Probably one of my favourite little food outlets is the Fish and Chip Van. It was an exclusive release to UK. Francesca the Fish Fryer and Sonny were sold separately as accompaniments.
Sylvanian Families Christmas sets
Sylvanian Families Christmas sets are always a favourite and we've seen quite a few pass through our store in recent times. They're collectible especially because Christmas (and any seasonal set, for that matter) are limited edition. Usually released one year, and once sold out it's replaced by another Christmas set.
And this one is a real vintage (below) a rare Japanese Sylvanian Families Christmas bear set
Sylvanian Families Furniture set favourites
This gorgeous little set is one of the furniture sets designed to accompany the Sylvanian Families Old Oak Hollow Treehouse.
Sylvanian Families Tomy Dropleaf Table and Side board
I love the old Tomy vintage brown furniture and wish there was more of it still availalble. It's very stylish and elegant with great detail and accessories
Sylvanian Families Ceramic Furniture
Some of the early Sylvanian Families furniture was made of ceramic and brass, with metal pieces (in the days before it was all regulated to plastic)
Occasionally lovely pieces like this Ceramic and metal bath tub set still turn up
