Yes, they are doll house miniatures Bravo! But where are they usually placed. Extra credit if you can tell the name of the vessels when they are used together.

Sorry Diane, I suspect you thought the same but you didn't answer.

These are called Garnitures they are decorative ware used to sit on fireplace mantels or cabinets. They are usually made of porcelain and used in sets of five or more.
