Well, ok the name Loris is the name of a puzzle box made in corian bu Frank Chambers and exchanged at IPP 23.
This is a massive puzzle, big and heavy and probably the biggest Chambers'.
Pretty unusual to have the warning written on a puzzle. Here it's very clear: no banging/no force of any kind. Indeed you could break the mechanism!!!
Talking about the mechanism, this one is very unique. I have never seen it in any puzzle. It's not a trick at all, but a real mechanism. It's so clever that you cannot imagine what it's really unitil you've opened the puzzle (gently, of course!). Then you can deduce, this is a pretty difficult puzzle.
Patience is required and you should be able to open the box at some point. The name of the puzzle is (supposed?...) to be a hint.
If you see it somewhere, I really advise to buy it. It's not only a nice puzzle but also a nice mechanism.
Obviously I cannot show the solved state as it would completely spoil the puzzle....
