A paper rat to celebrate Chinese New Year
It all starts with a sheet of paper. Then another. Slowly, the rat takes shape beneath your fingers. This Chinese New Year rat in 3D origami is more than a decorative object: it tells a story of patience, precision, and tradition. A symbol of luck, intelligence, and renewal, it naturally finds its place on a shelf, a desk, or at the heart of a festive display.
Every fold matters. Every assembly step brings you closer to the final result: an expressive paper sculpture with strong volumes, designed for lovers of meticulous creations and fans of display-ready 3D origami.
A detailed model designed for the joy of assembling
This model is made up of 45 pieces, spread across 12 pages, to be assembled methodically and calmly. The final format — 250 mm high, 150 mm wide, and 100 mm deep — offers a strong visual presence without overwhelming the space.
The rat is designed in a single paper color, allowing complete freedom of choice: deep red for tradition, clean white for a contemporary look, or colored paper for a bolder interpretation. The 12 pages correspond to this single color, ensuring clear and fluid instructions.
An ideal creation for 3D origami enthusiasts
Do you enjoy expressive models, stylized animals, and projects that require focus without becoming discouraging? This rat fits perfectly within the world of 3D animal papercraft origami, striking a subtle balance between challenge and enjoyment.
You move forward step by step. You take your time. And over the hours, paper becomes volume, character, presence. A creation to keep — or to proudly gift.
