Twelve regular 2D pentagons join together nicely in 3D to make a dodecahedron. 120 of those dodecahedrons unite in 4D space to form the glorious hyper-dodecahedron! 4D manufacturing is very expensive though, so we've made Dodecaplex. Dodecaplex is a physical puzzle...

No matter how you rotate a circle, it’s width will always stay the same. So far, so obvious. But if you thought this property was unique to circles, then these shapes of constant width will blow your mind. Check out...
OK, so you might have seen this puzzle before but the chances are you've only ever tried to solve it in two-dimensional Euclidean space (on a bit of paper). But topology is everything when it comes to the Utilities Problem....
Matt originally made these as a gift to give to a few schools he works with. But word got around and he was inundated with requests to buy them. So here they are. Available to buy.These stickers are themed like...

While the cube is a wonderful shape, and tessellates 3D space beautifully, it seems a bit boring as a shape for ice to put in your drink. With this π Ice Cube Tray, you can freeze some H2O in the...
Brought to you by Maths Inspiration, this pencil is printed with the largest left-truncatable prime number: this means it remains prime no matter how much you sharpen the pencil. 357686312646216567629137 is itself prime, but so is 57686312646216567629137, and 7686312646216567629137, and so on...
These mathematical magnets can be arranged to form poetry. They can also just be arranged to form true mathematical facts, but we’d argue that all maths is poetry. So it’s the same thing. For example: all our triangles takethe sum...
DUE TO MANUFACTURING ISSUES, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RESTOCK THE GRIME CUBE BEFORE CHRISTMAS 2018. If you'd like to be notified when we get more stock in, please sign up for the Maths Gear newsletter using the form...

A wide range of Rubik-style twisty puzzles and speed cubes. These may look like toys, but they're serious sporting equipment. Also: fun toys.
Tantrix is an elegant coffee-table strategy game. Its mix of skill and chance makes it utterly addictive. I'm personally a big fan of the solitaire puzzles (think of them like the campaign mode instead of the multiplayer mode). This pack contains 56 tiles....

T-shirts galore for the discerning maths fan.
In the world of numbers, 220 and 284 are special because they come as a pair. They are a pair because, if you take all the numbers that divide 220 (1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55, 110...
You're hopefully already aware of the brilliant Möbius band - a strip of paper wrapped round with a twist, which exhibits some peculiar mathematical properties (try drawing a line all the way around one, or cutting it half). In fact, if you haven't...
The premise of Manifold is deceptively simple. Fold a piece of paper into a 4x4 square so all the black squares are on the top and all the white squares are on the bottom (gray squares must be hidden). There...

Are your balloons topologically trivial? Do you party harder than a mere spherical balloon can handle? Then you need... a torus! These Toroidal balloons have a much more interesting structure than a standard-issue sphere, and can be used to: Liven...
You may have heard mathematicians say that there are only 17 types of wallpaper. Which is a shorthand way of saying, if you print a repeating pattern, it will definitely have 1 of only 17 possible symmetry groups. A symmetry...
The backs of most playing cards have rotational symmetry so they look the same both ways up. Most of the details on the face are also designed to be symmetric, hence the two-headed mutant king and his family. However, not...

This unusual clock tells the time with a spiral arm. To add a little mathematical beauty, the arm is a Fibonacci spiral meaning the line moves further from the centre by a factor of 1.618... (the Golden Ratio) for every...
Display the time with this "base Fibonacci" clock. Available as a kit or pre built. The way this clock works is just so cool. The side lengths of the squares are the first 5 terms of the Fibonacci sequence (1, 1,...
There are a few maths clock options out there for the discerning temporal number fan. But this one is our favourite because it doesn't show you equations for the the standard hours of 1 to 12. No, instead of showing you boring-o'clock it...
