Description

Lazy Wolf is a fantastic example of celebrated puzzle craftsman Osamu Kasho’s singular combination of playful, character-driven Karakuri design coupled with delightful puzzling mechanic.  It presents you with a charming, slightly rotund wolf.  Can you open him up and discover what he just ate?  While the solution is only a few steps, it hinges on a key movement that is deceptively simple yet difficult to find.  This is a wonderful puzzle that is fun to solve and looks great on display.  Comes with original box.

 

Karakuri product description:

 

This wolf is a bit fatter and lazier than my previous work “The wolf from Grimm”.

And it has a different solution. It has a very simple move but I hope it’s a fun challenge to find it.

What’s in the belly this time?

Vaulting Horse - Karakuri Idea Contest 2010
Vaulting Horse is from the second ever Karakuri Idea Contest, in 2010.  It depicts a miniature vaulting horse of the sort you might see in a gymnastics competition.  It has two parts: the vaulting horse platform (including a cloth inlay on top) and its springboard (with a functional spring action).  It was crafted by Hideaki Kawashima, reflecting one of his early works as a member of the Karakuri Creation Group.  To the best of my knowledge, Vaulting Horse has never been on the auction marke...

Flaskolation - Yasuaki Kikuchi (Karakuri)
Flaskolation is a creative, beautiful, and unusual Karakuri, epitomizing Kikuchi ‘s puzzle style combining playful themes, puzzle cleverness, high craftsmanship, and conceptual originality.  It has three parts: the box, a syringe, and a stand for the syringe.  This puzzle is particularly distinctive – it came out during the COVID pandemic, and was a direct response to it.  Very few are in circulation.  More about its pandemic inspiration can be found in the Karakuri description.
