Mini Lock by Christoph Lohe / Pelikan

Crafted in Ash and Purpleheart by Pelikan.

Christoph Lohe wrote about it: “The puzzle consists only of a frame with one obstacle, a shackle, and two sticks. With a level 6.7 it is not a difficult puzzle, but it can be operated like a tiny padlock, which is a nice touch. When I received Pelikan's sample, I was amazed what they made of the design. They have been able to build it in a tiny size, only about 25 grams. Nevertheless, the woodworking is fabulous, very precise, tolerances are just perfect, and the wood selection is breathtaking. It is a cute little gem, I love it!”

At 32 mm x 26 mm x 52 mm, Mini Lock by Christoph Lohe is on the smaller side, packing a clever mechanism into a diminutive functioning wooden padlock.
