A favorite among puzzle aficionados, the Charles Perry Desk Puzzle is a timeless example of mathematical art. Originally designed in 1967, the puzzle has been unavailable for years, and its vintage copies are still sought after at a premium. This challenging design is composed of six interlocking brass cylinders that can be disassembled and reassembled with a bit of focus and dexterity.
A sculptor, creator, and industrial designer, Perry is known for his large scale and monumental sculptures that celebrate and question the laws of nature. His work has an elegance of form that masks the mathematical complexity of its genesis. Charles Perry has work in MoMA’s collection. Made in the USA of brass, the Desk Puzzle measures 1.5h x 1.5w x 1.5”d. Ages 6+.
