This famous optical illusion originally appeared in print. This wooden version was then created some years later by an artisan in Germany. Even if you know how it works, it still seems impossible!

The illusion looks a little like two boxes of different shapes. The one on the left has a long thin top, the one on the right a shorter and wider top. Both these pieces can be removed by pushing then from the back, and you will then discover that you can replace them the other way around. They really are the same size and shape, even though your eyes tell you differently!

Great perception illusion

Got this for a nephew interested in magic and illusions- it was a hit. It really seems impossible that the pieces could switch!

I love optical illusions and this is one of the most baffling ones. Nicely made of wood and with the right size to carry it with you. For me it's one of the highlights among the "grand illusions".
