Description

Take on a mix of mazes, disentanglements, and spatial logic with this curated set of premium metal puzzles. Featuring three classic Hanayama Cast designs and one intricate dual-layer maze from Puzzle Master.

​Included in this Collection:

  • ​Cast SPIRAL (Hanayama - Level 5/6): Expert Level. This is a true test of patience. Five identical interlocking pieces must be spiraled apart. This one comes in its original box, making it a great addition for collectors.

  • ​Cast HEART (Hanayama - Level 4/6): Hard Level. A beautiful, gold-plated disentanglement challenge. Your goal is to separate the inner heart from the chain and frame—then try to get it back in!
  • ​Cast L’OEUF (Hanayama - Level 4/6): Hard Level. Designed by legendary puzzle maker Oskar van Deventer. This "egg" puzzle features two interlocking plates with hidden mazes. You must navigate the studs through the grooves to pull the plates apart. (Features a natural vintage patina).
  • ​MAZE DISC (Puzzle Master): A dual-layer mechanical maze. This tactile puzzle requires you to navigate ball bearings through a shifting circular track. It's as much about "feel" as it is about logic.

​Condition & Details:

  • ​Materials: Heavy cast zinc alloy and brass finishes.
  • ​Condition: Excellent mechanical condition. The Spiral is boxed; the L'oeuf and Heart show a nice "played-with" patina that gives them a vintage character.
  • ​Difficulty: Ranges from Level 4 (Challenging) to Level 5 (Expert).
  • ​Weight: These are solid, hefty pieces that feel great in the hand.

​Perfect for: Office desk toys, gift sets, or anyone who loves a "hands-on" mental challenge.
