Structure description
Build this realistic-looking model with kiln-fired, pre-colored ceramic stones and bricks including accessories step by step according to the instructions.
The construction begins with a shell of the structure with the cardboard elements on the wooden base plate. The roof construction then begins with the wooden rods (depending on the model, this step only follows the construction of the walls with the ceramic stones). Once these are completed, you can start placing the ceramic elements stone by stone and brick by brick to complete the realistic-looking model - similar to building a real building!
This is NOT a toy and is NOT suitable for children.
