Description

◆ Product Overview ◆
This is a traditional Japanese puzzle box known as the "Yasubei Button Box," a craft with origins in the Edo period.
At first glance, it appears to be an ordinary wooden box. However, it features a secret locking mechanism and cannot be opened without performing a specific sequence of moves. This is a collector's item that showcases the wisdom and masterful craftsmanship of Japanese traditional "Karakuri" (mechanized puppets/devices).
It is admired for the warmth of its wood and its intricate, precise mechanism.

◆ Condition ◆
This is a pre-owned item.
It shows signs of age and use (e.g., scratches, dirt, fading), which is consistent with its vintage nature. Please note that the secret puzzle mechanism works perfectly.
(※ Please check the photos carefully for details on the condition.)
