Uncommon Treasures Yosegi Puzzle Box 4 Sun 12 Steps

looks nice, was delivered as promissed

Precision made though I needed to sand a couple of pieces for better wood on wood movement.

I love it. It is exactly as described and it looks even better than the photos. It's very beautiful. The delivery was fast too. The item arrived earlier than expected. The 4 stars review is for the size. I picked the medium size and I expected it to be a little larger than it was. If it was bigger it would have gotten a 5 star review from me. I would definitely buy it again. This time the larger size.

I bought this box as a birthday gift for a friend. The box itself is small, and the compartment inside is even smaller, but it is the perfect size to hide a small treasure. I put a medium-sized pendant necklace inside one of those velvet drawstring bags jewelry often comes in in the box, and it fit snugly. Still, the box itself is absolutely beautiful. It's smooth and feels solid, the patterns line up so you can't tell where the pieces to slide are located. It took me a good ten minutes of playing around to figure out how it works, and a little longer than that to solve it. It's not very complicated once you figure out the steps, but it's still a fun little gift and a nice way to frustrate somebody for 20 minutes or so! The box does come with a small slip of paper that has instructions on it. The instructions consist of a diagram of the box with numbers and arrows telling you which piece to slide and in which direction. There are some small written instructions on the bottom of the paper, but they are in Japanese. So unless you speak Japanese, you have to rely on the picture. It's not overly complicated, but some steps might be slightly unclear at first.

This box is so cool! It was a chore to get it to open, but so much fun to work with. I'd love to see how these things are made, and designed. It could make a great present for a kid... Tell them you put a surprise inside (money, gift card, photo etc.) but they have to figure out how to open it.

Bought for my husband as he’s a fan of puzzle boxes and has a growing collection. This is his favorite by far, and is the most impressive piece to his friends and family. This also took him the longest to figure out, and he enjoyed the challenge immensely. It’s a beautifully crafted box with hardly any movement in the pieces, and you can barely see any of the seams, even while looking up close. I’m planning on buying more boxes with more moves to give him a bigger challenge.

This made for a super fun gift! Beautiful craftsmanship. You cannot see the lines where the box moves to open. So very well done! Would love to order different ones!

This is meant to be a present for my boyfriend and will contain coupons for trips to his favorite places. I know he will love the possibility of hiding things in this box. The box is absolutely beautiful and delicate, very fine craftsmanship and nice overall quality although I can see why some people get frustrated and break it. You should get it if you like to be nice to your possessions and take care of them. (I must confess that I had to watch a youtube video to solve the last 2 movements because I had never seen a puzzle like this) I will buy it again as a gift to my loved ones.
