Description

Brand new, never solved - only opened to take pictures.  For unexpected reasons I have to travel across the US to provide support for my family back home. For this reason, I have decided to sell my most recent KCG acquisitions since I do not have attachment to these yet.  I will likely post additional puzzles from my collection when I return.  Comes from a safe, smoke-free & humidity controlled home.

Puzzle Info:


https://www.karakuribox-webshop.com/category/select/cid/331/pid/296


This work was produced for the new release of a new work with the theme of "JAPAN".
It is an automaton karakuri box that reproduces *Shishi-odoshi. 
Shishi-odoshi, is a device powered by water, which fills bamboo tube and then pivots down hard to empty, making a loud clacking sound against a stone. 
Shishi-odoshi was originally created as a device to frighten wildlife animals such as deer and boars that ravage fields.
Nowadays, it is installed in Japanese gardens to enjoy it's charm and elegance. 
You can enjoy the movement and sound of Karakuri Shishi-odoshi by turning the handle.
It reproduced the time when water is accumulating in the bamboo cube. 
Even if you turn the handle many times, it will not start moving immediately. 
You'll have so much fun spinning that you will almost forget to untie the contraption.
The contraption is very simple. It is a work that kills two birds with one stone. 
You will enjoy both, the sound of Shishi-odoshi and Karakuri box at once.
