Introduction
So innovative, that changed the world of cubes.
V-CUBE™ products are a uniquely designed and constructed series of rotational cubes. They are manufactured under the unified V-CUBE™
technology, invented and patented worldwide by the Greek Engineer Panagiotis VERDES.
V-CUBE™ technology made possible the construction of a Cube with an unlimited number of layers, providing safe and smooth rotation. The
revolutionary approach led to an innovative construction that permitted the production beyond five-layered cubes something that was believed
to be unattainable for over 20 years!
At the same time, V-CUBE™ unified technology has resulted in the design & industrial production of much more durable and user friendly cubes
of existing sizes and introduced the “pillow” cube design.
Furthermore, V-CUBE™ innovative stylish approach to print directly on the cube’s surface introduces border-less creations of popular subjects
and effectively explodes the Cube to an infinite level.
V-CUBE™ products are addressed to kids and parents, students and teachers, professionals and artists, tourists and museum lovers, companies
and licensees. Their unique features allow literally everyone to enjoy them, regardless the level of difficulty or experience and establish V-CUBE™
as the “21st Century Cube”.
The biggest Cube Collection Ever!

So innovative, that changed the world of cubes.
We lift off an 80’s toy to an endless range of speed cubes.
For over 30 years, cubes of more than 5 layers existing only in imagination and in computer simulations,
while the function of all available sizes was far from acceptable…
We designed, patented and created a superior range both in terms of overall quality and aesthetics. The cubes are
offering a high level of joy-full experience and endless satisfaction to every user.
The “V-Classics” includes 10 different six colored cubes in a flat or in our unique “pillow” shape! Moreover, we
enclose the eye-catching and exciting “Illusion” and “Flag series”!
A unique range that cubers love to use and compete and shoppers love to collect and display!!!

V-CUBE™ ILLUSION
seven-layered cube
The V-CUBE™ 7 “Illusion” is now available offering a different challenge!
It is made up of two colored cubies, making a checkerboard scheme on
the cube, which may look effortless to solve, but look again, hence its
name V-CUBE™ 7 “Illusion”!
This game concept is new and unique! Cubers who enjoy a little less
intensified challenge will enjoy this cube and help build up cubing skills.
There is a special trick for the solution of the V-CUBE™7 “Illusion”. Five
sides of this cube have a full checkerboard scheme. However the 6th
side (”the special side”) has a reversed checkerboard pattern. Solving
this particular side of the V-CUBE™7 “Illusion” will automatically solve
the rest of the cube. It is as if you are solving just one side of of a regular
six-colored cube!!!
You can enjoy the challenge of solving this bi-colored cube yourself, and
you can give it also to your friends, family and co-workers as pleasant
home or office decor that they will be able to use and brag about!
The V-CUBE™7 “Illusion” is currently availlable in four different color
variations, to encompass a more broad range of color preference!
