Furniture: Foreign Issue 1978 Dream Furniture for the Barbie California Dream House






German issue. Very rarely you'll see these on US Ebay, otherwise you can go to the German site of Ebay, though international shipping and exchange rate will make the price pretty high.



It's hard to imagine this very American style house and play set in a foreign country, but with moonier changes they made it work. I just wish we had the color variations in every country to further customize our collections. 


I wish these were available for us, I like the floor lamp and the red TV and accessories are quite fetching.

  2. I’m looking for this set for my 1978 dream house. I’m trying to decorate it in the original 70’s colors. Not the pinks! I have the yellow & orange one.

    1. I found a lady on eBay from Germany that had all the furniture in those colors. She had the whole set, living room. Dining room & bedroom. It was perfect for my 1978 Dream house, the yellow & orange one. I had been looking for the furniture for it for a long time. All I could find was the pink stuff. She only had 1 room listed but when I told her that I was looking for all of it, she showed me all she had. I had hit the Jack pot! She sold all of it to me!
      Happy from Oklahoma!
