In the maker's words

Crafted by Yasuaki Kikuchi, this Karakuri box takes on an interesting theme with a Christmas Boot as the motif. The crafter describes his work in the following manner, "I made a pretty box with Christmas Boots as the motif. The gimmick is simple. As I learned after making everything, the red boots that Japanese people are familiar with are unique to the Japan and are not universal." Exterior dimensions of 108 x 84 x 47 mm. Woods used are Chanchin, Mizuki (dogwood), Magnolia, Keyaki (Zelkova), Walnut and Maple. Will arrive in gift box and opening diagram.
