Hungarian Puzzle Secret Box for Jewelry - Handmade

"It looks like an innocent and solidly-locked box on the outside, but when you play around with it, you realize that there is more to it. A puzzle box of coz. And when you open it slowly, you discover that it is brilliantly designed. So cool and interesting!
And one of the things I like about the box other than the puzzle and the woodcraft is, how it can deceive you lol.... unlike some puzzles which tells you straight away where it is supposed to be tweaked, you can't tell with this one. All the places are cleverly hidden, making you think that it is inflexible and fixed. So, you gotta do some investigation first and think further. haha..."
