Details

Danish mathematician Piet Hein invented the soma cube in 1933 to distract himself during a lecture on quantum mechanics. Give yourself a similar distraction with this twist on a classic designed by Thai artisan Waraporn Khamsuk. While traditional soma games contain just seven pieces, the artisan designs this version with 17 geometric pieces. Carved from raintree wood, the object of this puzzle is to arrange the pieces to form a cube.

"Artful Elephant"

Love my elephant! Is it a puzzle or modern art? Reminds me a bit of Kai Bojesens darling wood animals. Came with instructions in case you do decide to take it apart but for now, its adorning my shelf and looking majestic.

"Wooden Puzzles"

These puzzles are not only great entertaiment for family and friends but a great center piece (I have mine on the living room coffee table). These puzzles are masterfully crafted from wood and are stunning. Every guest Ive had has sat down and both complimented and played with the puzzles. This is a must have.

"Some of these are definitely tricky!"

Only one of these have I successfully disassembled and reassembled on my own. One of them I disassembled and got the principal to reassemble it before looking it up, but its monstrously hard to do even when you know how unless you have three or four hands. If that were the only puzzle I would deduct a star or two for that, but all the others are well designed and can be disassembled and reassembled with only two hands. All of these puzzles are quite clever and the pieces fit together quite well. This would make a great gift for someone who has children who like puzzles I imagine.

"Its Time for a Basketball Game"

I purchased this game for my boyfriend as a unique gift. (He actually works for the NBA.) He took it to work, set it up, and played it with one of his co-workers. They were very serious about their game, keeping score, and even naming teams! I never envisioned him having so much fun with it!Thank you Waraporn!
