John Derian Paper Goods: The Library 1,000-Piece Puzzle (Artisan Puzzle) Puzzle – October 19, 2021

I really like the design of this puzzle, because of the straight lines and obvious sections for different styles and colors. It makes it fairly easy to tell where each piece ought to go. I like to separate the pieces into categories for different sections or colors, so this was a puzzle that I could neatly organize and then enjoy putting together!I love that the artwork is from a real French architectural design from the 1750s.This 1,000-piece puzzle is beautifully designed and thoughtfully crafted. The puzzle comes with a little 9″x6″ poster of the art, so that you can use it as a little poster, put the art in a frame, or use it to help you complete the puzzle.I love everything about this beautiful puzzle! Even the box it comes in is very sturdy and well-made. I was especially impressed to see that the backs of the puzzle pieces are not just blank, but have a beautiful soft blue color. It’s delightful to see little details like that which make this puzzle really special and show the exceptional craftmanship and careful thought that went into the design and manufacture of the product.Thank you to Workman for sending me this puzzle!

My favorite puzzle ever...looking for more from John Derian when we've finished this one (2/3 of the way there!)

The puzzle is well made, which is always the most important thing to me. The design can definitely be tiring, as they are sooo many geometric lines. I normally prefer something brighter, but I felt very accomplished when I finally finished it!
