このフローラル分解パズルは、朝顔の形にインスパイアされています。2つの五弁の花がリベットで留められ、銀色の螺旋状リングが両方の層に通されています。花を回転させ、リングを回すことで、ピースをさまざまな構成に組み替えるのはとても簡単です。その動きは楽しくて満足感があり、まるでフィジェットトイのようです。しかし、最終的な目標は、螺旋を花から分離することです。非常に難しいチャレンジです。

The way the two five-pointed blooms rotate against each other is oddly meditative, and the silver helix ring adds just enough weight to make the whole thing feel substantial. I keep it on my desk and find myself fiddling with it during calls, which is exactly what I wanted.
The helix ring moves with a satisfying click as you twist the two blooms apart, and I caught myself solving it three times in a row just to feel that mechanism again. It’s compact enough to fidget with during meetings, and the morning glory shape makes it a nice desk piece when it’s not in my hands.
The way the helix ring slides through both flower layers and locks them together is pure genius once you spot the rotation trick. I've already taken it apart and reassembled it five times just to feel that satisfying click again.
