Miniatures & Salesman Samples

furniture and accessories.

In many cases a Sample can be differentiated from a Miniature by the Scale.

Samples are generally 1:2 or 1:3 scale, miniatures are much smaller. there is no exact scale applied to miniatures, they are a personal preference of the cabinetmaker. Proportions with miniatures and samples make the difference between goofy doll stuff and elegant accessories.

Simmons iron bed. This bed has the simmons logo. Simmons, used these small custom-made miniature beds in their 75 SERVICE CENTRES across Canada during the 1920's to circumvent the steel shortages prevelant at the time. You actually purchased a bed and mattress using these "samples"

There are few of these still existing. Simmons has a few in their museum, many others have been painted over, forever losing the copyrighted logo indicating their origin.

Own an exciting part of Canadian History.

The use of these SERVICE CENTRES, and the part these miniature beds played in Simmons's comback from a failing company back to success is a great story.

alas, we have not been able to convince Simmons to make a custom matress for our bed... yet.
