Egyptian locks, invented in ancient Egypt, are said to be the oldest locks in the world.
Although simple, the lock itself plays the role of a key. Its structure is still used today in modern keys.
This work is a karakuri box that uses the ancient "Egyptian lock" mechanism.
When the box opens, you can see the mechanism.
Enjoy the mechanism that the ancient Egyptians created.
