1981 David Winter Single Oast Village Building. Measures about 4.5" in height. Excellent condition. Comes with box.
Step into the charming English countryside with this 1981 David Winter "Single Oast" miniature. A true staple of the early collectible village movement, this piece beautifully replicates the traditional kilns used for drying hops in Kent. The intricate detailing—from the individual shingles on the conical roof to the delicate climbing roses on the brickwork—showcases the artistry that made David Winter a household name in the 1980s.
This piece is an excellent fit for a bookshelf display or as a grounding element in a cottagecore-inspired vignette. Its earthy palette of terracotta, cream, and mossy green allows it to blend seamlessly with other architectural collectibles or stand alone as a conversation piece on a desk. Finding these early 1980s releases in excellent condition with their original box is increasingly rare, making this a fantastic acquisition for a serious collector or someone looking to start their own miniature village.
