There are numerous number of shops in Tokyo and it is nearly impossible to visit all of those stores.
Moreover not many stores carry these Japanese handcrafted puzzle boxes called Himitsubako and Karakuri puzzle boxes in Tokyo, that is mainly because there are not enough craftsmen making these boxes and the most of them are old, so they cannot produce that many.
MA by So Shi Te in Tokyo, however, carries the largest selection of the puzzle boxes and the store is located near Shibuya. More specifically there is a station called Gaienmae (外苑前), which is only two stops away from Shibuya, and our store is only 1 min walk from that Gaienmae station.
MA by So Shi Te usually have more than 30 different types of these puzzle boxes.
The ones I am holding are the traditional types.
Karakuri bako usually means the modern puzzle boxes and they come in various shapes and colours.
There are more selections at our store and you can actually touch them at the store.
You can check our online store for the availability, but we sometimes do not list them on our online stores, when we do not stock them that many. So if you are visiting Tokyo, please visit our store!
