Creation! (Original) by Collectors’ Workshop
(c. 1978,1991) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)Creation (A Collectors’ Workshop Original) is one of those ‘once in a lifetime’ inventions developed by Rich Bloch and Nick Ruggiero. The thinking behind this fabulous and beautiful effect is inspired to say the least.
Effect: The performer displays a beautiful brass cage, which he calls a Tibetan Prayer Lantern. He then asks for the loan of a ring. The ring is placed inside a small wooden box, which is retained by the spectator.
A ‘prayer sheet’ is now pushed onto the chain that supports the lantern, which just covers the top of the lantern. The performer asks for the loan of the box, which contains the ring; he recites a silent incantation as he carefully shakes the box. Suddenly the rattle sound emanating from the box stops. The box is returned to the spectator who is asked to open the box, which is now found to be empty.
The spectator is asked to touch the prayer paper to the flame of a candle, which causes the paper to burst into flames. Instantly and visibly, the vanished, borrowed ring appears sealed INSIDE the brass lantern.
It is impossible to remove the ring from inside the lantern unless the lower chain is removed and the cage sections unscrewed. A truly IMPOSSIBLE transposition.

Yes this is remarkable!
As someone who has spent a fortune on magic it is quite easy to be dissappointed by most of the magic I buy. However this piece from Collector’s Workshop was a very pleasant surprise. George Robinson had told me how much he likes it but I was always a bit dubious.
Well I decided to get it the other day and I must say how truly beautiful it is. I don’t think you can fully appreciate it until you see this.
If you are looking for something that is beautifully made, very cool mechanism, easy to do, and packs a wallop with the audience this one is for you! Highly recommended!

Fascinating piece of magic
I have owned this CW piece for years, having bought it when it was first released. I have always thought of Creation as one of CW’s more dramatic piece to perform. The accompanying storyline is great. The use of flash paper for that magic moment and the beautifully designed prop makes this a real winner. The prop is well made and accomplishes the magic with ease. Very entertaining and most highly recommended.
