Our Process

FROM ORIGINAL SKETCH TO FINISHED MODEL

Every Curious Rabbit® model begins long before the laser starts cutting.

From the first sketch to the final box, every step is carefully considered to create something that's enjoyable to build, beautiful to own and made to last.

Our Philosophy

WE DON'T CHASE TRENDS

Most of our inspiration comes from ordinary British life; the things people walk past every day without noticing.

A beach hut. A pallet. A shed. A telephone box.

They're familiar, practical objects with stories worth preserving in miniature.

Inspiration

Everything starts with a real object. We research its history, photograph references, and study the details that made it iconic.

Design

Each model is designed from scratch in-house, balancing authenticity, buildability and strength. If something isn't enjoyable to assemble, it goes back to the drawing board.

Laser Cutting

We use precision laser cutters to create each piece from sustainable wood, ensuring accurate details and a perfect fit.

Hand Assembly

Every piece is hand assembled, checked and finished in our workshop. We add the little touches that make each model special.

Carefully Packed

We package each order with care using quailty materials, ready to be enjoyed or gifted.

Delivered to you

From our workshop in Wales to your door. We'll do everything we can to make sure it arrives safely.

Why it matters

Rather than simply making miniature versions of things, we try to capture why people love the originals.

If a finished model makes someone smile because it reminds them of a place, a memory or a job they once had, then we've done our job.

Inside our workshop

From initial idea to the final package, everything happens under one roof from our workshop in Abergavenny, Wales.

We're a small team who care about the details, because it's in the details that make each kit and model truly special.
