SnowFlake - Robert Yarger (Stickman)

NOTE From Robert Yarger:

The Stickman Snowflake puzzlebox comes closer to meeting my "personal criteria of a perfect puzzlebox” than any other puzzle crafted by me before or since. It is symmetrical, eloquent in its simplicity while moderately complex in its solution, -- all while being two puzzles in one, and being held entirely together by the shape of its pieces without any glue. It also serves a purpose in that it was originally crafted to go on a Christmas tree. This is one of the original snowflake puzzles given out as thank you gifts to those collectors who supported me early in my career.

The snowflake requires a minimum of 7 moves to solve, and an additional move will also allow it to come apart into 6 individual pieces that can be quite challenging to re-assemble. It is crafted from solid holly (a wood that I have not been able to find in any quantity for years now), and is one of the few puzzles that I never lacquered to preserve its pure white color.

Puzzle measures 1.5” square. No instruction book or limited edition number was ever placed on these puzzles.
