FAQs

What are the dimensions of the finished puzzle?

The finished puzzle measures 48 x 69cm.

Is this puzzle suitable for children?

While it can be a family activity, it is generally recommended for older children and adults due to the 1000-piece count and complexity.

Can I frame the puzzle after completion?

Yes, you can use puzzle glue to secure the pieces and mount them in a frame that fits the 48 x 69cm dimensions.

Does the box include a reference poster?

The box cover serves as your primary reference for the completed image.

Is this a difficult puzzle?

It is considered a moderate to challenging puzzle, perfect for those who enjoy spending several hours or days on a single project.

Troubleshooting

Two pieces seem to fit but clearly do not belong together.

Gently disassemble the connection. The House of Puzzles pieces have unique shapes; if a piece does not lock firmly, it is likely a 'false fit'.

Missing a piece.

Carefully check the area surrounding your workspace, including underneath the table or inside the box packaging, as pieces often get stuck in the box corners.

Pieces are curling at the edges.

Ensure the puzzle is stored in a dry, room-temperature environment away from direct heat sources to prevent material distortion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality piece construction prevents peeling and ensures a snug fit.
  • Engaging difficulty level suitable for intermediate to advanced puzzlers.
  • Beautiful artistic rendering by a respected illustrator.
  • Provides a meditative and stress-relieving activity.

Cons

  • Requires a large table surface for assembly.
  • 1000 pieces may be intimidating for absolute beginners.
  • Storage of the finished puzzle can be difficult without dedicated display space.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, select a sturdy table that exceeds the 48 x 69cm dimensions of the puzzle. It is recommended to use a puzzle mat or a large piece of cardboard to allow for easy relocation of the puzzle if necessary. When organizing, sort the edge pieces first to establish the boundary. For care, avoid getting the pieces wet or placing them in high-humidity environments, as this can cause the cardboard to warp. After completion, you may choose to use a standard jigsaw puzzle adhesive if you intend to frame the finished image. Store unused pieces in the original box to prevent loss and dust accumulation.
