The set includes seven bags (six flower types plus stems), with no stickers or printed tiles, and detailed instructions. Digital instructions are also available, offering a more interactive building experience.
The bouquet features daisies, cornflowers, eucalyptus, elderflowers, roses, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, a waterlily dahlia, and a campanula. The instruction booklet includes descriptions of each flower in English, French, and Spanish. For example, the Cymbidium orchid description reads: "Cymbidium orchids are documented in records from Confucius' time, around 500 BCE, making them the oldest known cultivated orchid species."
The waterlily dahlia description: "Symbols of elegance and grace, the decorative waterlily dahlia blossoms unfold like a luxurious firework display."
Unlike traditional LEGO sets, the bouquet relies heavily on hinges for its petal construction. This creates a delicate, visually stunning final product, but requires careful attention to petal placement and orientation. Improper placement can lead to setbacks.
Unlike typical LEGO builds with foundational structures, the bouquet is entirely aesthetic, resulting in a fragile, display-only model. This unconventional design prioritizes beauty over structural integrity.
This impracticality, however, is its charm. The exquisite beauty of the final product makes the trade-off worthwhile.
LEGO Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, Set #10342, retails for $59.99 and contains 749 pieces. Available at Amazon and the LEGO Store.
