One more lit window on your bookshelf.

A two-story library, an astronomical clock set into the back wall, books floating in midair above the shelves and a cat balancing on the mezzanine. It's the kit that speaks most directly to readers.

Two stories, a clock and floating books

Three hundred seventy pieces, five to eight hours. The big job in this build is the shelving: dozens of miniature books to put away one by one on two levels. The astronomical clock at the back goes on last and becomes the vanishing point of the whole scene.

Who is it for? Avid readers. The obvious gift for someone whose bookshelf is already overflowing. A long build to enjoy while listening to an audiobook.

Assembled dimensions: 18.5 × 11.5 × 25.5 cm
