A gothic mansion, one detail at a time

Four hundred thirty-three pieces and, according to the manufacturer, eight to ten hours of building: a kit to savor over several evenings. The cage lanterns, the rows of vials and the miniature books call for a careful hand; the structure itself follows the classic 18 × 11 × 23 cm book nook format that slips between two books.

Who is it for? Fans of gothic atmospheres and Halloween nights. A gift for a horror novel reader. Fall decor that keeps its place all year round.

Assembled dimensions: 18 × 11 × 23 cm
