About Karamba Kruk
Ynspirearre troch in piratenfilm liket dizze kruk as de skatkiste fan 'e kaptein, wêr't hy syn bút mei súkses ferbergje kin foar de bemanning, ferklaaid as in meubel. Njonken de lade binne d'r 2 ferburgen fakjes om jo skatten te bewarjen. Houten lichem, skip touwen meitsje it uterlik mear realistyske, as in feitlik stik fan kaptein & # 039; Yn in moderne ynterieurûntwerp kin dit in echt goed aksint wêze yn 'e keamer.
