Describe what you can see
Start with ordinary language: animal type, colour, size, hands, face shape, accessories and other visible details.
Coming soonCollector Identification & Research
Something new for collectors is taking shape.
Found a Sylvanian but don’t know what it is? IndexFound is being built to help identify loose figures, accessories, buildings, sets and variants from the physical details you can actually see.
Launching first with Sylvanian FamiliesIndependent research project
What we’re building
Built to identify what’s actually in front of you.
No catalogue number should be required. No specialist terminology should be required. The aim is to turn visible clues into a researched identification without pretending uncertainty does not exist.
Research before certainty
IndexFound is being built around object-first evidence, confusable boundaries and an explicit willingness to stop when the evidence runs out.
Build an Index worth browsing
Families, figures, buildings, accessories, sets and variants will sit inside a structured research index rather than a flat list of guesses.
Depth before breadth
We’re building the Index before opening the doors.
Rather than launch a thin identification tool and fill the gaps with guesses, we’re expanding the research foundation first. Public access will open when the coverage feels useful, coherent and worthy of collectors’ trust.

Research is growing. The doors open later.
