At Viking Magic there is a new announcement of already the 4th creation made by Damir Djanis:

The Delphi’s Chest

The Delphi's Chest: A beautiful handcrafted chest with a unique and original 'secret'. The Chest allows you to 'see' what is placed inside the box, yet the method is 100% impossible to discover. Honestly, no amount of searching or prodding will reveal the unique and original secret of the Delphi Box.

Is it worth the 349 $?

Looks good but when the lid is open suspicious elements can be seen

The Delphi's Chest: A beautiful handcrafted chest with a unique and original 'secret'. The Chest allows you to 'see' what is placed inside the box, yet the method is 100% impossible to discover. Honestly, no amount of searching or prodding will reveal the unique and original secret of the Delphi Box.

Playing cards, coins, keys, any small object may be used. The spectator places a small object inside the box and then locks the clasp. The performer may display the box all around, no suspicious moves, etc. and yet within seconds he has all the information he needs. I will repeat, the chest may be examined before and after. Impossible to discover the secret.

The interior of the chest will hold a poker-sized deck in the box. 
Note: if you perform in a restaurant, bar or any darkened area, you will still be able to decern the contents of the chest. Available in aged European oak or mahogany. Each chest is carefully inspected, hand polished and signed by its creator. Chest measures 4.5” x 3.3/8” x 1 ¾”.

Looks like a switched off LCD screen embedded in the underside of the box? Agree that it looks suspicious.

Thanks for the input guys. Although I like the products by Damir Djanis, I will skip this one…

Indeed it looks too suspicious with this, what is it, glass? mirror? on top?

See through mirror?

It’s also strange that Damir Djanis doesn’t promote his products himself. He has a YouTube account with literally zero posts…

At the moment, I'm thinking more of the material used in some Peak wallets. But that was not the
first impulse for me, but the 4 round holes that can be seen on the frame of the lid. However, I let
the statement stand that a viewer will not discover anything. I think this small chest could be more
versatile in its application than assumed - I am interested but extra ship & tax costs hold me back

That's what I thought too, but I noticed this in the ad copy "NO ELECTRONICS-MECHANICAL OPERATION."

The "mechanical" addition text was added later but it is true

An extra surprise is also included and the inlay is glass 👍

The 4 litte round holes do not have any trick meaning

I'm curious about the "nothing to find" statement.

Can you tell the total on the tops of the dice or only the colors?

In the video demonstration I name the color and the number of points
Of course, I can also name the total number of points of both dice

This smart chest can detect all kinds of small objects ...

I thought of the Cyclops Box when I saw this. I didn't like the handling in that video performance, but that is probably what it takes to get the peek. I don't own it yet, so I don't know.

Like the Cyclops Box, I will probably end up owning one.

If you own the Chest, you'll understand why I demonstrated it this way

In a real live presentation it works more silent and smoother ...
