Reimagine Play: The Gemstone Cube

The Gemstone Cube by DAR Proyectos is a reimagined classic—a tactile intersection of ancient Andean materials and mid-century puzzle logic. Composed of 7 uniquely hand-carved gemstones, this set challenges you to form a perfect cube in any one of 32 possible solutions.

About the gemstones

• An uplifting, soothing stone, Angelite blue is said to carry a calming energy and vibrate on clear communication and intuition, and even has curative properties for direct healing.

• Green Serpentine is a unique stone formed of crystal-like minerals, ranging from lime green to deep pine. This stone is said to stimulate the digestive and glandular system, and acts as a shield to counteract invasive vibrations.

• Creamy Soapstone varies from pink to gray to yellow tones, depending on the mineral composition. It is valued for helping one prepare for change, promoting rational and creative thinking.

• Orange Jasper is a variety of quartz blended with volcanic earth, forming its earth-like colour. Said to be the “Supreme Nurturer,” it is a stone of grounding and comfort.

F.A.Q

How many solutions does the Cube have?

It has 240 distinct solutions, excluding rotations and reflections. But the fun doesn't stop at solving it -  You can rearrange the seven gemstone pieces into different shapes, animal figures and playful configurations, making it an interactive piece of art to enjoy whenever you need a little creative break.

What are the pieces made of?

Each set is a curated mix of Andean semi-precious gemstones, including angelite, serpentine, orange jasper, and various tones of soapstone. Each stone comes from a different region of Peru and is hand-carved in our Pacasmayo workshops. Natural variation in the stone means no two sets look exactly alike.

What is the difference between the normal Cube and the XL Gemstone Cube?

The Cube and Super Cube share the same puzzle design and pieces. The only difference is their size, with the Super Cube offering a larger version of the same hands-on experience.

How do I take care of it?

Simply wipe the pieces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners and abrasive materials to preserve their natural beauty. While the stones are made to be handled and enjoyed, we recommend avoiding hard drops or impacts, as they may chip. If a piece does chip or come apart, a small amount of ceramic adhesive or high-quality super glue will allow you to handle minor repairs.

Is it gift-ready?

Yes! Every DAR Proyectos piece arrives in its own presentation-ready box, making it delightful to give as a gift. You can also ship your order directly to the recipient by entering their address at checkout.

Who is this a good gift for?

This Cube Puzzle is a great gift for architects, designers, art lovers, and anyone who appreciates handmade objects. It's also a thoughtful choice for birthdays of all ages, for graduations, for housewarmings, for Christmas or Hanukkah gifting, or simply for someone who will enjoy having some gemstone energy to brighten up their home.
