New July 2024! 

This is a challenging 339 piece wooden jigsaw puzzle by Australian painter Sandi Rigby with tons of Australian birds nestled amongst the leaves. 

Our puzzle design has Australian animal whimsy pieces, a straight edge, and curvy irregular piece shapes. Puzzle design by Marcelle Jay Iremedio. 

While not our hardest puzzle, please note this puzzle is really hard for its piece count: at a speed contest in California where they could see the image on the box, the winning pair of internationally-ranked speed puzzlers finished it in 1 hour and 15 minutes, the 2nd fastest pair took 1 hour and 48 minutes, and the 3rd fastest pair finished it in 2 hours and 11 minutes. 

Like all our puzzles, laser-cut from 1/4" thick wood. 

Packaged in a pine wood box with sliding lid, small picture on the top of the box, and an engraved side label. 

Made in USA.

12" x 12" when complete.

Manufacturer recommended age: 15 years and up

Review: While I hold it as one of my core moral principles that using the picture on the box is cheating, this puzzle is rated harder than I like, but allured me nonetheless, and I decided I would try this one time using the picture on the box to enable me to embrace a harder puzzling challenge than usual. Of course, my fellow Artifact fans, you know as I know that their box pictures are tiny and I did not expect it to be of that much use, but I am at that age where one no longer feels like trying new things and it is a victory to try new things even if they are small things, like well, using the picture on the box. Surprise! I rather enjoyed looking at the picture on the box! It presented its own challenge to figure out what small image detail I had not yet taken advantage of and could go after. It reminds me a bit of those old Where Is Waldo books, except without a Waldo. So far I have managed to get together about 100 pieces, about a third of the puzzle by piece count. But by puzzling time, well, let's just say I have done all the easy parts, and the hard parts remain, and will remain, because the hard parts are too darn hard for me. But the easy parts were fun while I could find them.
