Description
Sri Lanka Box was Peter Hajek's exchange puzzle at IPP33. He described it as follows :
"Sri Lanka boxes were described in CFF last year*1 and Frans de Vreugd later reported on our trip there*2. This box includes the main traditional elements and was made to my specifications by Sigiri Craft Centre. The ambiguous figure is a copy of a 14th C Sri Lankan carving.
*1. Hajek P. (2012) Sri Lanka carvings with secret compartments. CFF 89, 13-15
*2. De Vreugd F. (2013) Puzzle adventures in Sri Lanka. CFF 90, 16-21"
******************************
This is one of a number of rare/collectible/hard to find puzzles that I (Steve Nicholls) am selling on behalf of Ethel Brokenshire. Those who knew Laurie will understand how well these have been looked after. The puzzles are being listed with modest starting prices, please bid generously.

I will be happy to combine shipping if you win multiple items.

- Shipping Instructions
-
Shipping will be calculated and charged at cost after the auction ends. As a broad guideline I would expect shipping to the US to be around $30-35 for a fully insured, priority service. Combining shipping will add 5 or 6 USD per additional kg and around 1% of final bid price for insurance.
Payment by paypal is accepted but payment by wise/bank transfer will be preferred to minimise fees and improve exchange rates.
Payment by wise/bank transfer preferred though paypal accepted.
