Wealth has a face
Pay homage to the Maneki-neko God of Wealth: the joyous guardian of fortune you will place on your bookshelf. Its eyes crinkle into slits out of pure delight, rosy cheeks glowing bright, and one tiny paw proudly holds a gold ingot tucked in its bellyband. This grinning feline deity radiates good fortune that brings a knowing smile to anyone who lays eyes on it. Adorned with an ornate traditional Chinese opera headdress crafted from red enamel, gold coins, amber beads and red pom-poms, it sits solemnly before the grand gate tower of the God of Wealth Temple. Far more than just a collectible figurine, it is an open invitation for prosperity to step right through your doorway.
110 parts, two rare items
This set includes two precision metal puzzle kits: the main Maneki-neko figure (78 pieces, dimensions 75×65×90 mm, difficulty level 3) and the temple gate base for the Fortune Throne (32 pieces, dimensions 106×80×115 mm, difficulty level 1). Combined together, they form a complete Fortune Altar. The grinning cat sits inside the gilded temple gate, flanked by fortune-bearing rats holding scrolls, guarded by golden ingots at the bottom, with auspicious couplets hanging on both sides. Every detail is crafted with vibrant enamel plating, intricate hollowed-out patterns and exquisite workmanship, recreating this cultural heritage with the utmost reverence.

Every masterpiece begins with a single sheet of steel. At Metalligallery, we don’t just sell puzzles; we curate a gallery of engineering marvels that you bring to life with your own hands.
Our story began with a simple fascination for mechanical structures and cultural heritage. We looked at the world’s grandest architecture—from the majestic eaves of ancient Chinese palaces with their complex interlocking brackets, to the soaring steel beams of modern global landmarks—and we wondered: How can we capture this timeless beauty and hold it in the palm of our hands?
The answer was found in 0.1mm laser-cut precision.
By utilizing premium stainless steel and brass, we transformed historical temples, legendary ships, and cultural icons into thousands of miniature parts, waiting to be awakened. No glue, no solder. Just the pure, satisfying harmony of physical interlocking elements.
To us, every kit is an unfinished sculpture, and YOU are the artist.
When you spend hours at your desk, clicking pieces into place, the noise of the outside world fades away. There is only the cool touch of metal, the rhythmic movement of gears, and the ultimate peace of creation. Whether it is a magnificent forbidden palace, a historic sailing ship, or a simple, exquisite metallic magnet on your fridge, each piece carries a story, a challenge, and a triumph.
