Very detailed, but sometimes a little wobbly. As you can see in the image, it can fit Addy's birdcage and the phone on the top part. The drawers don't fit very much though.

I was a tad disappointed by the fabric, which felt cheap and overly synthetic. But the coloring (especially with my #25 black hair) won me over.

Cute, but the baskets and rod are very fragile. At some point I had to retie the string. You kind of have to wrap the string gently around the pole or it will eventually get hopelessly entangle. The trout look realistic and can hook onto the fishing line. The grasshoppers are out of proportion and look like some plastic toy you can get from a Science Museum gift shop. I still would recommend this set especially if you can do an outdoor photo shoot.

The cloth is good quality cotton, and it's actually quite lovely and authentic:  It matches the quilt very well.

The adobe oven which came as an individual set; the bread is extremely realistic. Of course, Josefina would have used it outside.

Looks like some more images wouldn't hurt! I'm not sure if this color would have appeared naturally in the 18th century...but I liked the quilted petticoat and the hat. The green fabric has dots, and is a little sheer. It has a synthetic feel to it.

Thought you guys might like a full-length photo though my outfit didn't have the pin, bow, or original shoes.

This was definitely worth the $28. The outer skirt is attached to a bodice. The fabric quality of the white petticoat isn't as good. But it's still overall a nice outfit. The hat is a strange shape and is more like a bowler.

The canopy is bluer but the picture is slightly over saturated with light.

This is a must-have piece of furniture. The construction is very high quality and detailed (there's grooving on the seat) the wood is very beautiful. It has ton of play value, as I use it over and over again for other set ups in other historical period. You can't put much in the draw though, including the inkwell. Here's some photos to show how it looks compared to other furniture and toys.

It's cute and worth the retail price, considering how much you get and the detailing. (All those flowers on the hat are attached by hand.) I don't know about historical accuracy though...but I can see what kind of fashion they are trying to mimic. The problem AG faced was that to be historically accurate, there would have been too many pieces, so they made everything un-detachable (the kerchief and petticoat). Here are some more pictures:
