Cloche du Temple

The laser-cut parts fit together so precisely that the bell assembly took me only an evening, and the finished piece looks stunning on my shelf. I especially love the intricate latticework on the bell housing—it captures the temple atmosphere perfectly.

The wooden pieces have a nice smoky smell when you first open the bag, and the interlocking joints are impressively precise for a laser-cut kit. I spent a relaxing evening assembling it, and the finished bell looks great on my desk.

The laser-cut pieces fit together like a puzzle, no glue needed for the base structure, and the tiny clapper actually swings when you tilt the frame. It’s a fun, meditative build, and knowing it represents the 108 New Year’s bells makes it feel more meaningful than just a decoration.
