Frequently Asked Questions
Can I do this even though I rarely do crafts?
The set is rated Level 3 out of 5, making it suitable for casual hobbyists. However, with 280 pieces and over ten hours of build time, it’s a longer project. The illustrated instructions in German and English, along with a build video, will guide you through every step.
What else do I need to get?
Glue and batteries. White glue, wood glue, or quick-drying craft glue are suitable for the joints; for the light, you'll need two AAA batteries. All the wooden parts, the LED light module, the window elements, and the decorations are included in the set.
How much space does it take up on the shelf?
When assembled, it measures about 18 x 11 x 23 cm, with the longest side being 23 cm. This means it fits on a standard bookshelf between books. Just check beforehand to make sure you have 23 cm of space available.
How do I turn on the light?
The LED light turns on with a tap of your finger on the touch sensor. It's powered by two AAA batteries, which are not included in the set. You don't need a power outlet for it.
Who would this make a good gift for?
It is recommended for ages 12 and up. It’s perfect for culture and book lovers, as well as anyone who enjoys building things at their own pace. Since it takes over ten hours to build, the recipient should be patient and eager to tackle a larger project.
Who was Su Dongpo?
Su Dongpo is considered one of China's greatest poets. The diorama is designed as a quiet tribute to him, featuring books, mirrors, landscapes, brushes, and paper. A dust cover is included in the set to keep the finished scene pristine.
