Experience the fascination of a unique model-building and collection idea with true-to-life replicas of stylish furnishings, exquisite miniatures, doll houses and valuable accessories in 1:12 scale.
Build it yourself – it’s as easy as pie The special thing about this hobby is the pride and joy you experience when you’ve seamlessly built a beautiful piece of furniture on your own and created something valuable.
Each furniture kit includes precision cut wooden parts and brass fittings, as well as detailed and easy-to-follow instructions for the assembly of a piece of miniature furniture.
The comprehensive assembly guide describes every step and provides easy-to-follow sketches and detailed drawings.
All wooden parts are precisely manufactured and, in some cases, come complete with grooves. This means that no cutting or sawing is required, and assembly is quick and easy. Sanding the wooden pieces down with fine sandpaper guarantees a velvety-smooth finish for your furniture.
The authentic look of an antique piece of furniture is achieved with the glaze or liquid wax or varnish.

This kit requires some practice and finesse in assembly and painting. The attention to detail and precision of the grand piano kit is also apparent here when you scrutinize the workings of the instrument.
All shown furniture will be delivered as unassembled and unfinished kits. Miniatures and deco materials are not included.
40040 Concert grand piano with upholstered stool Furniture kit 12 x 16 x 8.5 cm (HxWxD) This kit, consisting of over 70 parts, is an exact replica in every detail of the larger original. The kit comes complete with all brass parts, such as hinges, pedals, a strap hinge and fully-functional casters. The assembly of this grand piano takes patience and skill. The surface finishing of the piano is particularly demanding, which is why this construction kit should only be assembled by experienced builders. The 12-page construction manual with 30 detailed drawings tells you how to assemble the piano step by step.
The attention to detail and precision of the grand piano construction kit is particularly evident when you scrutinize the workings of the completed piano. The addition of gold paint lends the wooden parts of the cast-iron frame a metallic appearance.
With a mahogany or cherry wood wax finish or appropriate glaze, the grand piano looks both refined and absolutely authentic. Finishing the model with liquid wax in shades of mahogany or a glaze is considerably easier than the highgloss finish in black or white, which requires a little more skill.
40086 Piano with upholstered stool Furniture kit, 10 x 13 x 5 cm. The piano’s keyboard is made of plastic. It is an exact scale model of the original. The two brass candle holders and the fabric for the upholstered stool are included in the kit.
