Wood Puzzle Box Vintage Sliding Secret Compartment Terrier Dogs
£25.00
On offer is a vintage wooden puzzle box featuring an inlaid top depicting two terrier dogs within a geometric border. Boxes of this type were produced as novelty and skill pieces, combining decorative woodworking with concealed mechanical movement designed to test ingenuity and patience.
The box opens through a sliding action. One corner must be drawn backwards to reveal a concealed button, which is then pressed downward to release the internal drawer. This style of puzzle construction is typical of mid 20th century wooden puzzle boxes and reflects careful planning in both design and function.
The box measures approximately 5 inches by 3.5 inches by 1.5 inches. Condition is good overall, with wear commensurate with age and use. There is a small area of veneer loss, clearly shown in the images, which does not affect the working mechanism.
A characterful and engaging example of a vintage wooden puzzle box that combines decorative appeal with interactive interest.
