This is a box from the japanese late night television show "GARO", im trying to identify the metal bits on this as they look store bought, perhaps like pieces found in crafts stores for jewelry and scrapbooking, as well as a base for this wooden box, has anyone seen anything similar to this? The only part ive 100% identified is the clasp body, comes with any basic small craft box or clasps set.

Cool looking prop!
The strips around the top front corners look like a watch strap to me - you can make out where the hinges are for each section as it's wrapped around the edge.
something similar to this:

The item above the catch (is that fun-tack on there?!?) could be a pendant, upside down. Or seeing as there's a link of the strap that might connect to it, some kind of fashion jewellery flower bracelet?
The bottom corners look like the brassware feet from a carriage / mantle clock, or similar item. Could be a seperate corner protector and foot.
This might make a good base for the box (just a matter of a mitre box and a 45 degree angle!:

You might be able to put something together that has a similar look just from found ebay parts, but
Well, aren't I the fountain of nuthin'! Maybe it'll give some else an idea.
Coz.
All links are to finished auctions. All celebrity voices are impersonated.
