No, it looked like a normal wooden jewelry box but a piece would slide out and reveal a key which unlocked another piece that could move revealing more inner workings ad infimum. You could always just smash it but it was a sweet coffee table piece or whatever. Dude on the street called it a Rubik's box but who knows. I paid about $2 American for it and I treasured it. When I quit smoking I gave it to my brother, who thought we were being ripped off because he didn't understand currency exchange lol.
