Description

Unlock hours of frustration and satisfaction with this collection of three iconic Hanayama cast metal puzzles. Designed by master puzzle creators, these pieces are as much works of art as they are mechanical brain teasers. Perfect for collectors, gift-givers, or anyone looking to test their spatial reasoning.

​The Collection Includes:

  • ​Cast Baroq (Difficulty: Level 4/6 - Hard)
    • ​Designer: Akio Yamamoto
    • ​Description: Inspired by the intertwining melodies of Bach, this elegant puzzle features two fluid, curved pieces. The goal is to separate the loops and then return them to their original "intertwined" state. The solution is surprisingly smooth and sophisticated.
  • ​Cast Cage (Difficulty: Level 3/6 - Moderate)
    • ​Designer: Prof. Bakalar
    • ​Description: A classic "star in a cage" challenge. A jagged star-shaped piece is trapped inside a heavy metal lattice. You must navigate the star through the narrow openings to liberate it. It requires careful orientation and patience.
  • ​Cast Key II (Difficulty: Level 2/6 - Fairly Easy)
    • ​Designer: Nobuyuki Yoshigahara
    • ​Description: A classic "disentanglement" puzzle. Two keys are linked together in a way that seems impossible to separate. While rated as a Level 2, it provides a very satisfying "Aha!" moment and is a great introductory piece for new puzzlers.

​Condition & Quality

  • ​Material: High-quality cast zinc alloy with antique bronze and silver-tone finishes.
  • ​Tactile Experience: These puzzles have a satisfying weight and smooth movement.
  • ​Condition: Excellent pre-owned condition with a natural "aged" patina characteristic of the Hanayama line. (Note: These are sold loose without original boxes).

Shipping paid by buyer and determined at close of auction.
