Frequently Asked Questions
How big is the finished model?
When assembled, it measures about 23 x 18 x 11 cm, with the longest side being 23 cm. This means it fits on a standard bookshelf between your books. In photos, scenes like this usually look bigger than they actually are.
What exactly is there to see?
The scene depicts a street from the Tang Dynasty, featuring red lanterns, traditional pavilions, small bridges, and figures strolling along it. As the scene is constructed, it gradually takes shape, section by section.
How does the lighting work?
The scene is illuminated; the light makes the red lanterns glow in the evening and turns the shelf into a little work of art. Batteries are not included—you'll need to provide them yourself.
Can I do this even without any experience?
The set is rated Level 3 out of 5 and is intended for casual hobbyists. The approximately 210 laser-cut pieces fit together step by step until the street scene emerges from flat wooden panels. Plan on spending two to five hours on the project; an assembly video is also available.
In which languages are the instructions available?
The illustrated instructions are included in German and English and guide you through all 210 parts. Batteries are not included. Tools are also not included; our tool kit is available separately as an accessory.
What if a part is missing or breaks?
Our spare parts service is free: Just tell us which part you need, and we'll send it to you as soon as possible. Support is available weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with an average response time of about 30 minutes. Shipped from Berlin · Free shipping on orders of €35 or more.
