 Tatuo Miyamoto |
My father made trick products in his job. And I also have made trick products ever since I started my woodwork. I made a trick cigarette case with a wooden dog, "the classical disk music box", "the phonograph", "a street organ", and many others. I'd like to create a Karakuri music box, and other unique products. |

 Odawara Lantern |
MY-11 |
This is one of the works that were developed for the cause of the concept to "make works associated with Odawara and Hakone". The motif is "the Odawara Lantern" which has been used for a long time in the Odawara area. It isn’t difficult to open. When you play with it, the form of the lantern changes interestingly. You can use it as an accessory case. Created : 02/2008 Size : 87 x 77 x 170 mm Material : mizuki (dogwood), shiuri cherry, walnut |

door. There are 2 spaces inside the box. Each space is similar and different
in the way they open. It's a little different kind of work, but not
difficult to open. This level of difficulty is also good for Karakuri
beginners. Created : 11/2007 Size : 100 x 100 x 53 mm Material : oak, walnut, etc. |
 Family |
MY-9 |
The family was expressed by this karakuri box. It consists of two boxes and
a smaller block. These are a mother, a father and a child. The three pieces
make movements that connect with each other. Can you find two storage
spaces? Imagine the love of family as you try to solve the puzzle. Created : 5/2007 Size : 125 x 60 x 120 mm Material : walnut, katsura, karin |
 Fortune Cards |
MY-8 |
It was created as an Xmas Present for 2006. You can see a spade on the box.
But, you might think a heart mark is more suitable for “fortune” rather than
spade. The motion is simple. But the mechanism is complex. The designer had
been a trick box craftsman, not a Yosegi (inlay) craftsman. But this time,
he tried Yosegi works for the first time. He was given advice by Yoshiyuki
Ninomiya. Created : 11/2006 Size : 117 x 78 x 45 mm Material : katsura, shina, purple heart |
 A Chance Meeting |
MY-7 |
This work is composed of three parts; the lower box, the top heart and the 3-leaf clover with three hearts. The lower part does not open freely and the top heart looks a bit lonely. In the middle, the 3-leaf clover composed of 3 hearts is the same as the heart on top. Maybe people who are quick to understand have already noticed the answer. But can you move the devices as you think? I hope your own “Chance Meeting” will come to you soon! Created : 1/2006 Size : 85 x 85 x 75 mm Material : Oak, Purple Heart |
 A Chance Meeting |
MY-7-2 |

 A Chance Meeting |

 A Chance Meeting |
MY-7-4 |

first leaf. You can push the edge of the leaf. The middle layer is wood
inlay. Created : 04/2008 Size : 85 x 85 x 75 mm Material : Oak, Purple Heart, etc. |
 Contrary Card Case |
MY-6 |
It was created as an Xmas Present of 2005. The appearance is standard case
with a cover. But of course, you can't open it through only putting up the
cover. "Just putting up" is wrong. If so, what way do you think it opens? Is
this too big a hint? Add to this, when you touch the orange colored panel on
top, you can find another device. Maybe it is difficult to see with your
eyes. It's a box that has an opposite way to open. created : 10/2005 size : 110 x 76 x 60 mm material ： walnut, rengas |
 Petit Heart |
MY-5 |
