Artifact Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles 2

Conceived in Seattle, Washington,  Artifact Puzzles couples clever designs and stunning artwork to craft laser-cut wooden jigsaw puzzles that will be treasured for generations.  These unique puzzles offer a challenge which upon completion inspires a much deeper satisfaction than any video game ever can.  Along with the vibrant graphics provided by the rich selection of artwork and the designers’ craftsmanship, the puzzle pieces themselves are extremely unique and interesting.  These puzzles promote spatial relation development, art appreciation, creativity, and team-working skills.

I feel in love with Artifact Puzzles, the moment I saw the box.  With an exquisite linen feel and the hidden magnetic closure where a hint to the fun and elegance that laid inside!  I wasn’t disappointed either!  I had so much fun putting this puzzle together…it was super challenging as the wood pieces were not all “typical” puzzle peices.  As you can see in the pictures, many were specialty shapes.  What was super interesting as well, was the mystery figures that emerged as you completed the puzzle! (See arrows pointing to those below).  It was like attaining  levels in today’s video games.

Confession TIME!  I do adore puzzles of any sort…but Artifact puzzles far exceeded my previous experience with puzzles and reminded me of a passion that I want to pick back up…jigsawing!  But now I want all my puzzles to be Artifact puzzles because the experience, surprise, and challenge will be very hard to meet in any other puzzle I try!  Highly Recommend!

    These are beautiful puzzles. I used to love doing jigsaw puzzles but since we moved from a house to a much smaller apt., we don’t have any place to do them. So I now have a jigsaw puzzle app.

    I like the SeV sport coat because it looks great in black and I think it has a good cut for shorter people (and my whole family is short!)
