Category: Basic. A cute variation on a classic puzzle. Purpose: Remove the ring. Handcrafted in the USA. Made of 6mm steel. Comes in a cloth bag with an information sheet.
Our puzzle collection is based on the types of diversions made by blacksmiths in the early centuries. We call them tavern puzzles because in times gone by communities rose up in country inns and taverns and gathered places in American towns. Did blacksmiths have a special love for puzzles? Probably. It is said that making puzzles was a task used as a training exercise for blacksmiths. An apprentice could learn techniques for making eyes, twisting and bending with precision on simple puzzle designs like the Iron Heart. After the master was satisfied with the apprentice's skill in making nails, the young apprentice might collect a difficult puzzle like the Patience puzzle. Each puzzle is mechanical in nature. No force or tricks need to be used. The puzzle is solved by removing the object piece. All puzzles are considered two puzzles in one. This is because it has not been truly mastered until the object piece is back in place. The literature that accompanies each puzzle shows the puzzle's starting position, the object piece, and how the puzzle appeared. Tavern Puzzles are made from mild steel, similar to iron. A beautiful patina will develop through use and handling. The more you play with your puzzle, the more fascinating it becomes. Steel will rust if exposed to moisture or stored in damp conditions. If your puzzle goes untreated for a period of time, a light coat of furniture polish will keep it in good condition. With a little care, your Tavern Puzzle will become a family heirloom.
