Bara-Bara Philosopher by Kasho, Karakuri Creation Group

Bara-Bara Philosopher is a very popular Karakuri Creation Group (KCG) puzzle box, designed and crafted by Osamu Kasho in 2021 (based on an earlier Christmas present from 2019, Bara-Bara Box with a Snowman).  It is UNIQUE among KCG boxes in that the five sections of the puzzle come apart to reveal the two storage areas.  Reassembling the box can prove more difficult than finding the storage areas!  So many moves packed in such a small and beautiful box!  The orange, brown and light colored sections of the box add to the beauty of the puzzle, as does the hand-crafted philosopher by Kobo Alp.  The box measures 6x6x6 cm, and the little philosopher is 3 cm tall.

Of course, the box is pristinely made. My copy is in mint condition and in its original box in its original plastic bag, complete with solution paper.  Examples of this popular puzzle sold very recently on Puzzle Paradise for $180 and $245, and so I hope that my starting price of $145 is attractive. 

Thank you for viewing my auction!
