Description

Yoh Kakuda is well-known for puzzles with cute animal themes and narrative style, well-exhibited by Silent Cat.  The story given with the puzzle is that although the puzzle’s namesake won’t respond to questions (hence its flat almost sad expression), its tail might.  The workmanship is superb, with a crucial move that’s tricky to find.  All original packing material is included.

 

Karakuri product description:

 

This work was designed as a Christmas present for 2018.

Even if you ask this cat a question, she won’t answer you. Only her tail responds. She is so silent.

 

Size: 51×57×108mm

Material: Japanese Walnut, Magnolia, and Chanchin

Condition: Perfect

Drawer of Stepping Monument (2018) - Hiroshi Iwahara (Karakuri)
Hiroshi Iwahara is known for unusual and intricate puzzle mechanisms, and this is one of his best.  Karakuri gives the English name of this puzzle box as “Drawer of Stepping Monument”, but its Japanese name is “飛び石の引出”, which Google translates to the more accurate “Stepping Stone Drawer”.   Somehow the beautifully crafted “stepping stones” along the top – which we are told represent a string of islands – are a clue to the solution.  Whatever is going on inside...
