The Artist's Cabinet

Brand: Ravensburger

Pieces: 1000
Size: 70cm x 50cm
Product Code: 149971

One of the reasons I enjoy doing puzzles so much is probably because of all the cool designs that are out there, through so many different brands. They are all so different, and many are appealing in their own way.

Today I have decided to put up the above puzzle, just because it's been a while since I last put up a Ravensburger!

This one was fun and also quite quick to do. It was my first Ravensburger in a while (after doing a variety of different brands) so it was nice to go back to a consistent quality puzzle brand. This design had lots of little details that made themselves obvious as you put the pieces together, and it looks as though it will be part of a new series- It said Cabinet Collection One on the box anyway. 

It's always good to go back to the old favourites :)

Classic London

Brand: Pintoo (Showpiece XS)
Pieces: 253
Size: 18.3cm x 8.8cm
Product Code: P1169

A couple of my friends are visiting the UK at the moment, to take part in their friend's wedding, and so I decided to use that as a reference for my puzzle-posting today. 

This puzzle is from the wonderful Asian company Pintoo. I have done several of their puzzles in the past. While they also create flat puzzles, they have a lot of 3D-style ones too (like vases, lanterns, flower pots and screens). 

This one is a flat one, but it comes with an easel-type stand to display it on. As far as I know, all of their puzzles are made from the same thick plastic, and the quality is fantastic.

This puzzle was no exception. 

The pieces fit together snugly to produce a perfect little picture of London- the famous Tower Bridge and an iconic bright red phone booth. 

I will definitely continue to purchase from this brand.
