The six-piece pointed burr-star is a dramatic puzzle, and one of our favorites for the home. This one is an engaging and complex brain teaser, remarkably difficult to take apart and put back together; however, its most compelling quality is the visual beauty it provides. Hand-carved in natural gemstones, the star sits as a piece of art in its own right. Enjoy puzzling any guest on game night with this interlocking doozy!

Story

The burr puzzle is of mysterious origin, first seen engraved on the cover of Chambers's Cyclopedia. A captivating three-dimensional creation crafted from interlocking notched sticks. Named with reference to the finished shape resembling a burr seed, DAR Proyectos' version of the puzzle is handmade in semi-precious Angelite. The six-piece star-shaped puzzle forms a complex and striking object when not in use, puzzling any guest sitting around your coffee table.

About the gemstones

  • The little-known Andean Angelite, or Celestine, stone with provenance from the Arequipa Andes of Perú, is an uplifting and soothing stone. 
  • Said to carry a calming energy relating to the third eye and crown chakras, this stone vibrates on clear communication and intuition. 
  • This naturally occurring milky blue stone carries variations in tone and white flecks intermittently throughout the stone - no two stones are exactly alike.
