I collect Gault Miniatures. They are wonderful houses produced in France.
They recreate European cities and areas of Paris, Provence, Tuscany.
Are there any other collectors or sites other tan internovea.com
Good luck!

I have seen a brochure of the Gault houses and love them. Would like
to have some but don't know where to purchase them? Where did you get
yours. Thanks for the info.

I have to correct something from my last post. I just noticed an ad for
Gault Houses in the Nov 96 issue of "Collector Editions". The ad shows a
US distributor after all! It's Mitchell International Trading of Carmel
IN, telephone 317-582-0768, e-mail 10351...@compuserve.com You learn
something new every day, I guess!

I remember thinking that the Gault miniatures, more than any other village
collectibles lines I've seen, really made me feel like I was there.

Hi,
I might have a partial set of Gault's. I don't remember who made the ones I
have. They are of the village of Eze in France. Do you know if Gault produced
a set like this or know of who did ... I had a card, but have misplaced it.
Thanks!

The Gault pieces I hav seen have Gault stamped near the base, a code
number of the piece, date produced, the initials of the artists. There are
village buildings of St. Paul de Vince (Provence, France), San Gimmigiano
(Tuscany, Italy), City buildings of Paris, France and San Francisco.
Rolland at www.internovae.com has been very helpful in answer questions
about the Gault Company and the product lines.
Good Luck. Martha
Enesco has linked with Gault in producing a resin, not fired clay, for the
"tourist trade". This series is not as detailed and carved designs appear
primarily on one side not on all 4 sides. Therefor, not as expensive.
They are sold under the name Dominique Gault or Carlton. Dominique is a
brother of Jean-Pierre Gault the originator.
