Description

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 market previously.  The puzzle comes with all original packaging. 

 

Karakuri product description:

 

This work is one-twelfth the size of an original vaulting horse. Let's try to jump this vaulting horse using a spring board!

This work was produced by Karakuri Creation Group's craftsmen, from selected ideas of the "2nd Annual Karakuri Idea Contest"

 

Original idea by Yuki Nishida

Hand-crafted by Hideaki Kawashima (Karakuri Creation Group)
