Karakuri Box With A Tree

Handmade by Hiroshi Iwahara and feature an internal secret space measuring 38 by 36mm.

Designed in 2005 and recently remade, this secret box features unusual free-sliding left and right panels. 

The "Tree" motif is not just decoration, it is a vital clue to opening it.

Slide just one panel, and you've already made a mistake. The key is how you move the two panels. It takes only 4 steps, but it won't open until you solve the secret of the Tree.
