Know before you buy
Yes. Because every piece is hand-painted and individually numbered in Paris, there will be subtle variations that make your specific shadow box one-of-a-kind.
The structure is crafted from durable papier-mâché, while the front display is protected by a clear glass window set within an MDF frame.
The compact dimensions of 8.86 inches by 6.5 inches make it ideal for bookshelves, mantels, or bedside tables. Its lightweight construction allows for versatile placement on most flat surfaces.
To keep the piece in good condition, simply dust the glass front with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as they may damage the papier-mâché frame or the hand-painted finish.
The 3D house artwork is a permanent, integrated part of the shadow box design and is not intended to be removed or rearranged.
