"LeMarchand's first and arguably most classic, puzzle construct. Its complexity was managed by expanding on the design of a similar box designed and constructed by Albertus Magnus in the thirteenth century. When operated properly, a pleasing melody issues from within which belies its true nature."

"Dipping into the Gallery entries and seeing that the work I'd started in 'The Book of the Damned' not only represented but expanded on in great, enriching detail really makes this website sing as a dark reflection of the works of Clive Barker. It feels genuinely like the kind of mysterious store you'd hope to find by accidentally turning down some dark side street you'd never be able to find again; a store that once entered you almost wish you hadn't because despite the amazing assortment of oddities on display, there is something wrong--corrupt about the store and you wonder how you'll leave without giving away to the proprietor the fact that you shouldn't be there in the first place. This is by far the coolest reaction to anything I've ever written, and I am truly honored.
If you're a fan of Clive Barker's you owe it to yourself to visit Pyramid-Gallery.com If you make a purchase, and you'll want to, tell them I sent you." - Comic book and graphic novel author John Rozum

Featuring the intricately designed music box replicas of French architect, artisan and designer Philip LeMarchand. Posthumously credited as possibly one of the most prolific, if undiscovered, mass murderers in the history of the modern world, Philip LeMarchand first became known for his creation of bizarre, intricately designed music boxes which quickly became the rage of Europe.
The boxes, known in some circles as LeMarchand Boxes, were each one of a kind creations which were also puzzles, with the answer to one's ultimate hearts desire as their solution.
