Disappointed with the Loose Cuts - Detracts from the Art
While the painting itself is beautiful, the cuts are extremely loose. The looseness of the cuts disrupts the visual appeal and makes it difficult to appreciate the artwork once assembled. Instead of a seamless, cohesive image, the puzzle feels broken and fragmented. The precision of the cutting is just as important as the design, and in this case, the lack of attention to that detail really detracts from the beauty of the piece. I was hoping for a high-quality puzzle experience, but this didn’t meet my expectations. I've had more than C$500 purchase with artifact puzzles and had the same issue with other puzzles. It's money down the drain and I will not shop any further. I would also hesitate to recommend this puzzle to others.

The French couture boutique of Madame Jeanne Paquin … This slice of history may seem a bit over the top and dated but my experience solving this puzzle was anything but! The piece shapes are a modern, enhanced variation of the classic puzzle piece with knob connectors; these are not radically different, but charmingly and cheerfully so. The colors are also pinky rosy cheerful. I think I smiled the whole time I worked on it! As cheery as a new pair of yoga pants! This is an excellent puzzle.

This puzzle had really adorable pieces shaped like cute fancy dogs. The first time I did it, I got one of those fancy blooming teas from Harney and Sons and had my own little tea party. Have done it twice now with the nieces (7 and 9) in one sitting, and loaned it out to friends, and still looking forward to doing it again.
