Colorful Geometric Vintage SIFO Puzzle royal copenhagen This may be my favorite

This may be my favorite lacquered box I've had--and I've gathered a fair number of lacquer boxes

is certainly very rare if not the only one of its kind

It appears that at one time it was covered entirely in gold paint or gold leaf

notable for the painted tips of their handles

Colorful Geometric Vintage SIFO Puzzle royal copenhagen This may be my favoriteI always have an eye out for vintage teaching toys and games with great graphics allowing them to double as design objects, pleasuring kids and adults alike. This vintage SIFO puzzle is definitely one, and the only I've seen like it. 1960s or 70s I believe, and happy solvable two ways one with the geometric shapes matching their backgrounds and the other creating excellent color juxtapositions. Used for sure, with a little paint loss, scuffing, etc.
