According to the introductory section of Chenhall's Nomenclature miniature
items should be given their appropriate object term (Chair, Rocking), but
classified as a Toy.

What is the best way to classify doll furniture?

Using a miniature rocking chair as an example, I see a few options with
the Chenall's system.  Use Chair, Rocking but specify in description its
size/use.  Or  create Chair, Toy or Chair, Miniature.

Any advice would be most appreciated.
