Description
Cosmo Box – Intermediate Trick Opening Puzzle Box
Cosmo Box is an oak puzzle box that develops an earlier Karakuri opening idea in a larger, patterned form. Designed and produced by Karakuri Creation Group.
Discover how to open the box rather than assuming its apparent lid works like an ordinary lid. The exterior invites close inspection without giving away the intended action.
