It’s really amazing with a cute face
What is “Karakuri Box”??
“Karakuri Box”, is a box, with a mechanism made from the individual ideas of craftsmen based on the traditional craft of the Hakone and Odawara region, known as the “secret box”.
There are various shapes, opening methods, and mechanisms.
Push, shake, or turn … Take it and try to open it!
Let’s look at this “coffee cup” box. Even though it has a pretty shape, it still opens properly.
The hint is “A little breath”. Would you like some coffee? How many lumps of sugar would you like?
