Description

This is an unusual and special box.  It was designed and made in 2000 by Yoshio Okiyama of the Karakuri Creation Group.  The last time one was up for auction was eight years ago.  Because this is such a unique item, I am setting it up as a 14-day auction.

I have tested the box and it works well.

Note that I only have the packaging lid, not the complete box.  It also comes with the insert shown in the last photo.

Per the Karakuri website:

I directly connected 2 secret boxes together. Thus I could realize a new way to open them. You can unlock them when you make a gap between the two boxes. On the surface, I used 2 kinds of Yosegi (Yabane and Kirichigaimasu). Both of the mechanisms and Yosegi were popular. This box should be called "an art work ".

The puzzle is located in the United States, but I will ship worldwide.
Customs forms for international shipments will reflect actual payments.
