A picture of Professor Albus Dumbledore adorns the back wall of the Common Room next to the magnificent stone fireplace. He was considered to be one of the greatest and most powerful wizards of all time.

A great deal of people think that the Ravenclaw common room is the best of the four, as according to the Harry Potter tales, a magnificent statue of Helena Ravenclaw was placed within it. Being one of the tallest towers of Hogwartz, it also had a wondeful views. Expect to see our adaption of the Ravenclaw common room at some point in the future.
However, the Gryffadore common room is the most favoured at Microminiatures.

The great stone fireplace has seen many magnificent fires burning away in the past, as can be seen by the blackened bricks. Today is no exception, a roaring fire is raging away.
The Common room has a lovely cosy look to it this evening with the oil lamps and candelabra flickering away.

Three tapestries adorn the walls of the common room giving it a striking resemblance to the Gryffadore common room at Hogwartz.

Each candle in the candelabra can be programmed independently, creating a very realistic effect.
