The puzzle pieces, designed by Seattle artist Maria Berg, are almost entirely abstract with just a sprinkling of figurative whimsy pieces (click on the small image below the big image above to see example puzzle pieces). This is one of the more difficult puzzles we offer at this time.

 Great Puzzle for Adults/ older kidsMar 04, 2010
This is a Great puzzle. It is challenging to put together -- so not for young kids. It is made well with a lot of fun "whimsie" pieces.

 Puzzle rubs off on you.May 21, 2009
I just recieved my August Macke "Window Shopping" 312 piece puzzle from Artifact Puzzles. I rated this product a little low because the way that it is manufactured leaves the puzzles smelling very very bad. The puzzle is cut with a laser that burns out the pattern.
Pros: The puzzle is shipped in a nice pine box with a sliding top. The pieces are 1/4 inch plywood. The colors are vibrant. The cut of the puzzle is interesting, and includes some themed puzzle pieces. I especially liked the difficulty of this puzzle, it was a good bit harder than a typical 300pc puzzle. There were lots of cool trick pieces in this puzzle.
Cons: The puzzle is burned out with a laser and it smells a little burned. The pieces do not fit as tightly as a high quality cardboard puzzle.
UPDATE: Artifact has recently upgraded to a higher-quality non-chemical plywood. I tried out a second puzzle and I was quite impressed by the improvement in the feel of the pieces and the puzzle arrived in a much cleaner and nicer condition. I am updating my review and giving them back a star based on this. The new puzzles still have a woody smell, but it is not the unpleasant chemical smell that I originally reviewed here. Also, I was pleased to find that the design of the puzzle cut-out is completely different and unique to each puzzle they offer.
