Lundby, also known as Lundby of Sweden, is a Swedish maker of dollhouses and miniature furniture for the mass market. Lundby dollshouse furniture has been produced since 1947 and their dollshouses have been sold since the late 1940s. The company started in the Gothenburg suburb of Lundby, which also gave the company its name. Lundby was the first maker to include electrical lights in their dollhouses ("child safe" 4 volt rather than the more standard 12 volt) and is notable for following contemporary trends in interior and furniture design.

| - Lundby, also known as Lundby of Sweden, is a Swedish maker of dollhouses and miniature furniture for the mass market. Lundby dollshouse furniture has been produced since 1947 and their dollshouses have been sold since the late 1940s. The company started in the Gothenburg suburb of Lundby, which also gave the company its name. Lundby was the first maker to include electrical lights in their dollhouses ("child safe" 4 volt rather than the more standard 12 volt) and is notable for following contemporary trends in interior and furniture design. The most common Lundby house style is the 'Göteborg' ('Gothenburg') which first appeared in 1959. This style of house was very popular and is still being sold today. It was renamed as the 'Småland' dolls house in 2006. There have been many other styles of Lundby dollhouse introduced over the years, such as the 'Stockholm' House in 1975 (and a newer, more modern, version in 2005). Lundby houses, furniture and accessories are 3/4 inch scale, also known as 1:16 or today as 1:18 scale, where 1 foot in real life is 3/4 inch in dollhouse size. (en)
- Lundby är ett svenskt leksaksvarumärke som är känt för sina dockskåp, som är i skala 1:18 och tillverkar de mest sålda dockskåpen i världen. Märket Lundby ägs sedan 1997 av Micki Leksaker AB, som även det tidigare tillverkade dockskåp under eget namn. Lundby har fått sitt namn efter området Lundby på Hisingen i Göteborg. Verksamheten startades av Grete Thomsen som började tillverka dockskåp. Grete Thomsen och hennes man Axel Thomsen började tillverka dockskåp på beställning och en fabrik startades i Lerum. Bror Åsberg drev företaget mellan åren 1953-1964. Även under 1970-talet pågick hemproduktion i Lerumstrakten, där främst hemmafruar, monterade dockskåpsmöbler, något som företaget tjänade pengar på. Marginalen på själva dockhusen var låg. Åren 1998-1999 flyttades tillverkningen till Kina. (sv)
