This clever burr puzzle has 12 pieces, two of which are hidden inside the burr itself. As the name implies the external whales and internal whales dance around each other a fair bit before the puzzle comes apart. It has been gloriously manufactured using bright vibrant woods (Wenge, Padauk, Purpleheart, Maple and Cherry) and the attention to detail is stunning – the whales have eyes made with contrasting dowels that have been shaved flush with the surface. It is this craftsmanship that brings us back to Pelikan again and again. Difficulty: 47 Moves (27.6.6.2.2.1.1.2) The brackets indicate the breakdown of moves to free each piece sequentially.Designed by: Alfons Eyckmans
