This is a vintage 24-piece wooden puzzle designed by Naoo Yamanaka, the fourth generation of Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo. As the name suggests, it is a work made up of 24 wooden pieces. It's a flower-like design commonly known as "Eda-hana" (Branch Flower). Usually, Hou no Ki (Magnolia) wood is used as the material, but this one is made of the rare Cherry wood. *Due to its age, there are some discoloration, scratches, and dents. Please understand this beforehand. Yamanaka Kumiki: Wooden puzzles from the Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo, which were traditional Hakone crafts until recently. Production was mainly for export to the United States before and after World War II, but it was discovered by Bruno Munari, Taro Okamoto, and Sori Yanagi, and it came to be highly regarded as a traditional Japanese craft both domestically and internationally. Production of wooden puzzles has now ceased, making them difficult to obtain. Yamanaka Kumiki Kobo: The history began with the first generation, Tsunetaro Yamanaka (1874-1954), a carpenter who expressed everyday objects in wooden puzzles. The second generation, Waichi Yamanaka (1902-1943), incorporated historical buildings and sports competitions into his designs. The third generation, Hirokichi Yamanaka (1905-1980), designed wooden puzzles with various animal motifs, including the elephant, which is famous for winning the Good Design Award. And the fourth generation, Naoo Yamanaka (1936-), changed the style from the previous ones and focused on creating new wooden puzzles that showcased the structural aspects, which are abstract wooden puzzles. His creations attracted attention in the fields of engineering and design, and they widely spread the existence of wooden puzzles both domestically and internationally.
