Description

The Mandala Secret Lock Box is a wooden gift card and money puzzle box with a hidden compartment, finished with detailed mandala scrollwork that is laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop. Tuck a gift card, folded cash, a check, or a small keepsake inside, and the recipient has to solve the box before they can reach it. It is designed by Erhan Cubukcuoglu of Turkey and made by Creative Crafthouse with his permission.

It opens the same way as our Secret Lock Box, and it is a genuine solve. There are five sliding rods on each end, and all of them have to be worked into exactly the right position before the lid will release. The mandala engraving is what sets this one apart: three faces of the box carry the scrollwork, and the lid can still be personalized with a name or message.

  • Dimensions: 5.2 x 3 x 3 inches outside. The inside cavity is 3 3/8 x 2 1/8 x 2 1/8 inches, just enough for a standard gift card, folded bills, a folded check, or a small keepsake.
  • Material: raintree, a warm-toned wood, with the mandala scrollwork laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop.
  • Difficulty: a real hands-on puzzle, not an instant reveal. A printed instruction and solution sheet is included so the gift giver always has the answer.
  • Personalization: add a laser-engraved name, date, monogram, or short message on the lid, up to 45 characters, for $4. Company logos and custom artwork available for corporate gifts.
  • Reusable. The box outlasts the gift inside and makes a keepsake worth keeping out on a shelf.
  • Also used in DIY and professional escape rooms as a hidden-clue or reveal mechanism.

Made by Creative Crafthouse and shipped from our Florida shop. Browse the full Gift Card & Money Puzzle Boxes collection, or see the plain Secret Lock Box if you prefer it without the engraving.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Mandala Secret Lock Box?

A wooden puzzle box with a hidden compartment that holds a gift card, folded cash, a check, or a small keepsake until you solve it. Three faces carry detailed mandala scrollwork laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop. Designed by Erhan Cubukcuoglu and made by Creative Crafthouse with his permission.

What makes the Mandala version different?

It is the same box and the same lock as our Secret Lock Box, with detailed mandala scrollwork added to three outer faces. The scrollwork is laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop, which is what sets this version apart.

How does it open?

It has five sliding rods on each end. You work all of them into exactly the right position to release the lid. A printed instruction and solution sheet is included.

How hard is it to open?

It is a genuine puzzle, rated Level 3. You can see there is a mechanism, but aligning the rods to free the lid takes patience and trial. Most people get there, and a solution sheet is included so the gift giver always has the answer.

What can fit inside?

The inside cavity is 3 3/8 x 2 1/8 x 2 1/8 inches, which fits a standard plastic gift card, folded bills, a folded check, a key, or a small keepsake.

What are the dimensions?

5.2 x 3 x 3 inches on the outside.

What is it made of?

Raintree, a warm-toned wood, with no batteries or electronics. The mandala scrollwork is laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop.

Who designed it, and where is it made?

It is designed by Erhan Cubukcuoglu of Turkey and made by Creative Crafthouse with his permission. The mandala scrollwork is laser-engraved in our Hudson, Florida workshop, and it ships from there.

Can I personalize it with engraving?

Yes. We laser engrave a name, date, monogram, or short message on the lid for $4, up to 45 characters. For corporate and client gifts we can also engrave a company logo or custom artwork on request.

Is it a good way to give a gift card or cash?

Yes. The hidden compartment turns a card or cash into a reveal the recipient has to earn, and the box gets kept long after. It works for birthdays, graduations, weddings, retirement, and the holidays.

Is it a good anniversary or corporate gift?

Yes. Engraved with two names and a date, it suits the fifth wedding anniversary, traditionally the wood anniversary. With a company logo it also works as a corporate or client gift or a milestone award.
