Elevator karakuri puzzle box by Mr. Hiroshi Iwahara
¥27,500
This elevator box is harder than you think to open it. You can easily open the half of the drawer by pulling it, but the the other half is really challenging to open. You can move the left half of the top panel and when they are adjusted to the right positions, you can eventually pull the drawer entirely to open, but i personally find it hard to figure it out. If you have already tried his earlier work "Bean bag drawer", which he created about 10 years ago, you might find this easy, but if you haven't, please try this box. -Craftsman : Hiroshi Iwahara -Size(body): 135 x 84 x 60mm -Size (storage) : 59 x 47 x 28mm(2 rooms) -Materials: walnut, wendge, maple, magnolia About shipping As for the box with this size, EMS is the only option we ship.

Fortune cards Karakuri puzzle box
