The origins of glass making are shrouded in mystery. In many cultures, the technique was as highly coveted secret passed down from master to apprentice and sharing it was punishable by death!
One of the earliest forms of glass making, core forming, is traced back to ancient Greece. This process shaped liquid glass around a solid object to create a hollow center. Once it was cool, the core was removed to unveil flasks which were used to store perfumed oil.
The goal of this puzzle is to take everything out of the bottle, then return everything back inside with the metal pin and screw reconnected to the wooden dowel. Players must use gravity, friction, and the items inside the glass to remove everything from the bottle. Emptying the bottle is challenging, but returning everything back into the bottle in its original state is even more difficult. Can you solve this puzzle and declare yourself a true genius? This puzzle has a difficulty rating of 5/5 stars.
