| | Description | The story of this puzzle begins a long time ago in a small village in India, where a young farmer somehow learned to fly just before his wedding. With this new ability, he found the perfect gift for his bride to be: he plucked a star from the heavens. Unfortunately he was so nervous about the upcoming nuptial that he let the star fall to the earth and it subsequently broke into six pieces. Fortunately for him, he frantically rebuilt it in time to present it to his new wife... And lived happily ever after. Reconstruct this ancient fable with this celestially challenging puzzle. Take the star apart and rebuild it using the six interlocking pieces. Contains six identical hand crafted wooden pieces.

 Medium Difficulty - Fun but not frightening! Jun 08, 2009
By javajunki

Another beautiful puzzle made out of lovely wood that will last for years. This star puzzle is a medium difficulty level without a lot of small parts to keep track of. Excellent choice for quick interest items or a hard puzzle for kids. Great puzzle for those with a visual impairment especially kids that aren't ready for the more advanced puzzles. I own/play with a lot of these puzzles BUT...to get a true sense of the puzzle, I throw out the instructions without ever looking at them whenever bringing home a new puzzle. Also, because my better half is visually impaired, it gives us both a "level" playing field with a little friendly competitive. See my other reviews for a break down on difficulty level, quality of workmanship and more.

My 13 year old cousin loved this, and so did my Uncle! Great present. Unfortunely only my 9 year old cousin could figure it out! ha!!

Tricky Jun 21, 2011
By Personne
The folks that make these puzzles have sure got a mean streak. I picked up a few as a gift for an older family member, and found each to present its own special challenges. This one nearly falls about by itself with just the right little twist. The problem comes in putting it back together. There are six identical pieces which seem obvious--but aren't. I haven't yet seen it successfully reassembled.
Quality is good and the wood gives it a nice traditional feel.

A great introduction to the world of wood puzzles Jan 12, 2011
By J. Guild
Puzzles have entertained people for centuries.Puzzles take various forms fron Jigsaw,Crossword,Number (Sudoku),Wire,Sliding Block (15-Puzzle),Twisty (Rubik's Cube),Dexterity,just to name a few;but Wood Puzzles or Burr Puzzles come in a huge variety and degree of complexity.Sometimes they are referred to as Mechanical or Hand Held Puzzles.Basically,Burr Puzzles are made up of a number of notched,interlocking pieces of wood.This Star Puzzle is an excellent example of one that has been around so long ,it is a classic.It consists of only 6 pieces and as far as Burr Puzzles go,rather simple.This puzzle concept is taken to great extreme with thousands of different ones , some extremely complicated,and some are very original and beautiful and sold as limited editions,costing hundreds of dollars and desired by puzzle collectors.If you want to see what great puzzles and puzzle collections exist,search out books such as "Puzzles New and Old " by Slocum and Bottermans.
In the meantime ,enjoy this Star Puzzle which is a classic and will give you an introduction to the many other wood puzzels that exist for you to enjoy.

An Intriguing Puzzle Dec 26, 2010
By SteveT
Once you figure out the puzzle, the toy no longer has much play value. The wood is excellently treated and should last many years.
