Description

This is a very old and rare box from Karakuri. This is a 2003 remake of Akio Kamei's 2002 Christmas Gift, but now there is nice Yosegi Pattern on both top and bottom panels. This pattern is very beautiful and mesmerizing.

This is a tricky little box that may leave several avid puzzlers into serious existential crisis :) . Jokes apart, this one is one of those that may take either 5 minutes or several days to solve.

These boxes were the inspiration for many karakuri boxes of the future (now past) at that time.

Here is a description from the original listing:

Karakuri Creation Group is creating "Creative Secret Box Series". We aim to develop "Secret Box" that is one of the Hakone Works. Please enjoy the world of "Creative Secret Box".
Woods used - walnut, magnolia, etc.
