Gift for lovers of Leonardo da Vinci

One person in history who had a love for both graphic design and words was Leonardo da Vinci; known both for his drawing skills and his right to left fluid writing script.

In the early Renaissance, secrets were aplenty with competitive states, private family feuds, and affairs of the court. There was no end to the level of intrigue that existed. Therefore, there was a great need for a keep-safe to hold secrets only accessible to those who knew a secret code.

It’s thought that Leonardo da Vinci identified this need and applied his love of design and words to invent the cryptex. Now, over 500 years later, Encrypta Gifts has introduced the Encrypta cryptex patterned after the probable invention of da Vinci.

“You guys and girls rock! I'm so happy I found ya'll. Thanks.

By the way, inside my cryptex I'm going to have an old antique parchment paper sealed with a wax seal like the Kings of yesteryear did. On the paper is going to be a clue written in invisible ink which will show up with a black light. That clue will lead to more clues which will eventually lead to the computer, where the recipient will have to answer a series of puzzles and riddles and once they are all answered correctly, a Da Vinci style (backwards handwriting) clue will print out automatically, where you have to look at it in the mirror to find out there's an invisible map on it, which leads to the treasure box, locked with a trick puzzle lock, holding gold covered chocolate coins and a puzzle box with a necklace inside. Thanks again.”
