This is a 247 piece Ecru-cut  wooden jigsaw puzzle of the pointillist seascape "La Plage de Saint-Claire" by French artist Henri Edmond Cross.

The puzzle design has fancy square-ish pieces with elaborate connectors, a decorative irregular edge (not shown on the box), and just a few French themed whimsies by Chandler Millwood. Some of the pieces can fit in the wrong place, and overall you might find this a really hard puzzle.

Our Ecru Puzzles line is characterized by a closer cut and a matte finish to reduce glare. Like all our puzzles, made of 1/4" thick laser-cut wood and made in the USA. Packaged in a blue box with a magnetic clasp. Made in USA.

10" by 12.5"

Review: Well. The colors are lovely. The puzzle is hard! There are many identical pieces that can fit interchangeably in each row, and while sometimes it's pretty clear when a piece is wrong, sometimes less so. I don't think I've asked "Is that right? Does that look right?" so many times on any other puzzle. The good news is when you've finished a section, it's pretty obvious if there are mis-placed pieces. The bad news is that they are kind of a bear to extract and re-place. A toothpick might be handy. Enjoyed it anyway, glad it wasn't any bigger!

Review: I like a hard puzzle, but this was ridiculous. Same pieces fits several places. I didn’t find it much fun.

Review: Tricky puzzle as pieces fit together but don't actually belong together.

Review: Mystery puzzle 22 was pretty challenging to get through, requiring detailed attention to exact fit of each piece. The cut allows for pieces to be interchangeably placed; a challenge when you don’t know exactly what the picture looks like. When you get to the whimsies, you may be reminded that something is amiss in your piece placement. This picture is beautiful, as is all of this artist’s impressionistic work. Highly recommend this one!

Review: This mystery puzzle is well designed! It's on the more difficult side with no image, the abstract painting style, and identical pieces. I definitely put pieces in the wrong spot, but you can always tell when it's wrong by the color and that was so fun! The shape design is very clever. I think the difficulty is perfect, challenging but not frustrating. The final picture is just gorgeous, and the whimsies are adorable!
