These two rooms were made by David Allan, who worked in Buckingham Palace where he was responsible for the textiles and upholstery. Queen Mary collected the furniture and all the other miniature items with which the rooms were decorated. She gave the rooms to the Museum of Childhood in 1924, the same year that the famous Queen Mary's Dolls' House, on display at Windsor Castle, was made as a tribute to her.

Queste due stanze furono realizzate da David Allan, che lavorò a Buckingham Palace come responsabile dei tessili e delle tappezzerie del palazzo. La regina Mary d'Inghilterra si occupò personalmente di collezionare i mobili e tutti gli altri oggetti in miniatura con i quali le camere furono arredate. Donò le due stanze al Museum of Childhood nel 1924, lo stesso anno in cui le fu fatto omaggio della famosa casa di bambole Queen Mary's Dolls’ House, in mostra al Castello di Windsor.
