It is not just a jigsaw puzzle, but also a beautiful Eastern decorative item. I love the effect of the golden stainless steel under the light. Highly recommended for any adult who wants a challenging DIY kit! #Metal Puzzle Enthusiast

This was my first metal puzzle kit. The hexagon lantern looks so elegant in the pictures that I had to try.

Ho regalato questa lanterna a mio marito per Natale, e siamo rimasti entrambi affascinati. I pezzi metallici si incastrano perfettamente, e il risultato finale è elegante e raffinato.

Diese Metall-Laterne ist ein echtes Highlight. Die filigranen Muster und die roten Akzente erinnern an traditionelle chinesische Laternen, wirken aber modern und elegant. Der Zusammenbau dauerte etwa 4 Stunden und war präzise, aber gut machbar. Mit einem kleinen Teelicht darin wirft die Laterne wunderschöne Schatten an die Wand. Ich habe sie im Wohnzimmer aufgestellt und bekomme ständig Komplimente. Ein perfektes Geschenk für alle, die gerne basteln und schöne Dinge lieben.
Cette lanterne hexagonale est un véritable bijou. Les pièces métalliques sont découpées avec une précision incroyable, et l’assemblage est un vrai plaisir. Une fois terminée, j’y ai glissé une petite bougie LED, et les ombres projetées sont magnifiques. Elle trône maintenant sur ma table basse et attire tous les regards. Offerte à ma nièce pour Noël, elle était ravie. Un cadeau original qui allie tradition chinoise et créativité moderne. Je recommande vivement.
I bought this for my home office to add a touch of elegance, and I’m so glad I did. The lantern has a timeless quality—it’s festive enough for New Year but subtle enough to stay out year-round. Assembly was straightforward; I finished it in about 4 hours while listening to podcasts. The metal has a nice weight, and the finished piece is sturdy. I placed it on a shelf with a small LED inside, and it’s become one of my favorite pieces of decor. Highly recommend.
This was my first metal puzzle ever! I bought it because I loved the look of the traditional Chinese lantern. Assembly took me about 5 hours (I’m a slow learner 😅), but the instructions were clear and the tools included helped. The end result is absolutely beautiful – looks just like the product photos. It now decorates my entryway. Great intro to the world of 3D metal puzzles!
This lantern is absolutely gorgeous when finished—the intricate cutouts and red trim give it a traditional Chinese palace feel. However, I’d warn that this is not a beginner kit. Some pieces are very small and fragile, and you’ll need good lighting and tweezers. I made a few mistakes bending tabs, but the instructions helped me correct them. It took me about 5 hours total. That said, the end result is stunning, and I’m already planning to buy another as a gift. 4 stars for the challenge, 5 for beauty.
Le cadeau parfait pour les amoureux de la culture orientale

I wasn’t sure what to expect from a metal puzzle, but this lantern exceeded all expectations. Once assembled, it has a delicate, almost architectural quality. I added a small battery-operated candle, and at night it creates the most enchanting glow. The shadows cast by the hexagonal panels are mesmerizing. It’s become a centerpiece in my living room, and every guest asks where I got it. A perfect blend of DIY satisfaction and decorative beauty.
