Slide Away

Slide Away – Brass Puzzle Box by Phil Wigfield

Crafted in the UK by puzzle designer Phil Wigfield, Slide Away is a charming brass puzzle box that combines elegant design with approachable difficulty. Originally created as a surprise box for Dutch Cube Day, this piece embodies both craftsmanship and playful ingenuity.

Features:
    Material: Solid brass, giving the box a satisfying weight and timeless appeal
    Objective: Remove the lid, which appears to be secured with a clever dovetail-style join
    Difficulty: Easier level – perfect for beginners or collectors who enjoy a quick but delightful challenge
    Signature Detail: Phil Wigfield’s personal inscription engraved on the top, marking it as a genuine piece of his work

Brass & Patina:
Brass is a living material that evolves with touch and time. As you handle Slide Away, the surface will gradually develop a natural patina – a warm, darker sheen that reflects its journey and use. This transformation makes each puzzle unique, carrying the imprint of its owner’s interaction and care.
