These puzzles are not only great entertaiment for family and friends but a great center piece (I have mine on the living room coffee table). These puzzles are masterfully crafted from wood and are stunning. Every guest I've had has sat down and both complimented and played with the puzzles. This is a must have.

Only one of these have I successfully disassembled and reassembled on my own. One of them I disassembled and got the principal to reassemble it before looking it up, but it's monstrously hard to do even when you know how unless you have three or four hands. If that were the only puzzle I would deduct a star or two for that, but all the others are well designed and can be disassembled and reassembled with only two hands. All of these puzzles are quite clever and the pieces fit together quite well. This would make a great gift for someone who has children who like puzzles I imagine.

My son loves the puzzles. Years of enjoyment and so beautiful

My daughter loves jigsaw puzzles but this gift brings an added dimension.
E





The set was really interesting and the different puzzles came with a guide to assist in solving. My only concern was that the lid of the wooden box holding the puzzles separated a little at the joints on on one side probably related to difference in humidity between my location and the source. Otherwise I was quite pleased.

It looks like a wonderful puzzle. I took it partially apart but was afraid to go all the way because I could find the solution drawing. I did not see one though I looked over and over but could not find it. Could you please send me the solution drawing for the Brilliant Diamond Wood Puzzle. Thank You !

This product was of very good quality and kept us entertained for hours!

D+Gave to my son for Christmas. He enjoys them.

These are challenging puzzles, thank goodness there's cheat sheet!
S





My students love this puppy puzzle!

Well made, this collection of puzzles made a great gift. The wooden box makes it a great organizer so that you can keep it out on a table. We have to admit that we needed to use the hint pages for one of the puzzles.The fit of the pieces is very good. My only wish is that they were a bit smoother finish. We gift one of these puzzles to each "host" when we camp along with a copy of the appropriate hint as a thank you gift. Being handmade, they always seem to bring a smile.

I sent this as a gift. It arrived promptly and the recipient described it as beautiful and challenging.

Great!

We leave this box on the coffee table for visitors to fuss with while waiting for dinner, for example. Usually there is a partially completed piece on top of the box.

My grandson who prides himself on being able to put together all puzzles in no time was stymied by this one and loved it.

This stood out as something my son would marvel at .

These items were so uniquely hand crafted. The packaging was just too beautiful to open but my son did open them. As a young man, my son was always fascinated with these mind puzzles. Now as an adult, this gift brought back wonderful memories. Now adays, it very difficult to find such personal craftsmanship in anything. Keep up the wonderful work. Be Safe and Be Well, Maria Virginia

Very challenging puzzles! Beautifully done!
M





What a neat very well made simple fun and amazing game! It is perfect for coffee table or any other spot that will attract attention by its cool looks and very interesting and challenging game. Beautiful wood that draws people to wonder "What is this fascinating little object?" To me, it is not as easy as one would think it would be. But once you begin, the fun 'hooks' you and it's hard to put down or stop trying. Impressive, most impressive.
A





The wood is a little rough to feel. I brought it for my grand son who loves puzzles and putting things together. Can be challenging even for adults.
J





I change this to different designs when I am sitting at my desk and writing. It helps my mind be free to create.
P





Lots of fun
J





good for kids
B





The wood the beads are housed in very smooth. A challenging game that will hold your attention.
R





My grandson spent the rest of Christmas Day after opening gifts working on these puzzles! A real hit and beautiful crafted.
M





Coffee table conversation starter. Granddaughter loves it.
K





Got this for my fella who has had a stroke. I left the paperwork, showing 4 different designs which can be made, on the counter with all the puzzle pieces dumped out and the frame sitting empty. He was immediately fascinated with it! Brainwork, eye to hand coordination, colors/shades/shapes of pieces ... so many skills to practice! We are pleased!
P





My dad and I always get either other little trinkets for problem-solving gifts so I decided to get this for him for Christmas. He LOVED it! We bring it out every holiday and try to do the puzzles together.
K





Got this for my tween aged nephew. He loved it. I loved it. And it was a challenge. I only got one done on Christmas Day. The craftsmanship is exquisite!

can be difficult for young children

Gave as a gift, recipient loved it!

These are very nicely machined 3-D wood puzzles and come in a snug-fitting 7-5/8 X 5-1/4 X 2-1/2 inch box. All 6 of the puzzles are challenging and fairly simple "Burr Puzzle" to the complex "Square Cube" which requires a 28 step solution. There is an included "solution" sheet with simple graphic depictions of the puzzle configurations for the assembly steps (solutions) for 5 of the 6 puzzles. However, the illustrations are very small, there are no written step-by-step instructions, and it is difficult to understand some of the illustrations. These are probably best purchased for an adult who is very patient, and who is able to do some independent on-line research for help with the solutions. A separate sheet with more detailed instructions for each puzzle's solution would be welcome for those who need a little help. I'd be hesitant to give this set to anyone less then 13 years old unless they are already a 3D puzzle expert and also have above average spatial visualization skills.
C





Fun activity for adults and children.
J





This was a gift for my son-in-law. My puzzle-loving daughter tried it first and it was easy for her.
J





I love this little puzzle. The quality of the natural wood and the precision of the shapes is wonderful! Many people talk about relieving stress by doing yoga or meditating. I love having a natural hands-on tool to help with relaxation. This puzzle helps me to let go of tension & just have fun rearranging the pieces. It's very soothing. I highly recommend this puzzle as a manipulative work of art and as a meditative instrument for relaxation.
M





Lovely workmanship and some much fun though challenging!Wood grain is beautiful.
C





I bought this as a Christmas Gift for a Furniture Maker friend who loves puzzles, and he absolutely loved this!
K





Proudly gave this to my dad. He loved it and the wood quality and locking was great. You may need to "wiggle" it a little to get the pieces going -- it's sturdily built!
M





My son-in-law was delighted with the quality, beautiful wood, and complexity of the puzzles.
C





My Son Loves the way this was crafted. He set it out in the common area of his house to display and has lots of fun puzzling his roommates. It's just beautifully designed and fun to play.
L





Beautiful carved puzzels
K





Very happy with these puzzles. I purchased them as gifts for my bosses. They seem very pleased with the puzzles and they are beautifully constructed. I love Novics and recommend it to all my friends.
C





The 12 puzzles are at different levels and they come with guidance on how to do them, which was a surprise. My son specifically asked for this as a Chanukah gift, and was very happy to receive it. I am sure he will enjoy many hours with it - especially since I haven't shared the guidance document. Well made.

The puzzles themselves are challenging and have distinct mechanisms/ solutions. What makes this amazing, though, is the feel and the appearance of the wood. The experience of handling these puzzles is particularly pleasant due to the materials used.

I have just purchased the second set of puzzles for two different grand sons. The first was a bit hit at the birthday party. The second will be a Christmas present. The workmanship is exceptional. These puzzles will be enjoyed for years to come. Thank you!!
C





My husband and I have been working on this one for awhile now. We'll work on it for a little bit, set it down, pick it back up, and start again. Haven't completed it yet, but it's right there in front of us taunting us to finish. It's quite compelling. Love it!
C





The puzzles are unique and very well crafted. My son is a mathematician and generally works trough puzzles quickly. He really enjoyed these and has brought them into his classroom to challenge his students. The wood box is a lovely touch.
T





I got this as a "grab bag gift" at a Christmas party. The recipient was delighted and everyone else was jealous. The actually opened it and started working the puzzles.. The craftwork is fabulous! It is a work of art, an entertaining puzzle, and a great conversation started and team builder.
A





I recommend even if you have kids play with them!
R





Love these, perfectly wrapped and a perfect gift!
M





Sometimes I need a present for someone I don't know well. For a woman, it's easy to give a scarf or something similar, but men are more challenging. This is perfect - unique, beautiful, interesting.

Perfect in every way (including the puzzle instructions!). This is an ideal gift for my doggie-loving friend... thank you!
J





I originally ordered this ÃÂtem as a gift for my 14 year old grandson, but on arrival gave it instead to his uncle, who loves beautiful woodwork. Must now reorder!

These puzzles really challenged our families' minds. Would recommend for any family wanting to get away from the electronic age. Pull those children away from their phones and work these wood puzzles. Great quality.

"I'm Waraporn Khamsuk and I was born in 1990 in Northern Thailand. I'm the eldest daughter in the family, and I grew up with the wooden games my father crafted. I'd watch him select wood, dry it naturally and assemble to complete a game. They are challenging and fun — something you'll never find in computer games.
Â
"My father founded our family's game workshop. At one time, he worked at a factory that produced bamboo skewers for meatballs. Then, the factory began to take orders for wooden games, and my father was allowed to work from home to earn extra income.
Â
"The factory saw that he put his best efforts into creating games that needed careful crafting of wooden joints. It was completely different from making skewers, which is repetitious as they are all the same.
Â
"When he didn't have any orders from the factory, he began creating new games. Then, he started to gain his own customers.
Â
"He created brain teasers, interlocking puzzles and wooden board games.
Â
"My favorites are the wooden games because I grew up with them. They teach me to think, plan and concentrate, and I apply these skills in my everyday life. Although technology has taken over life today, I'm still charmed by wooden games.
Â
"Creating them and crafting them are the precious legacy my father left me. He died in an accident in 2012 while I was at the university. I dedicated all of my spare time to keeping our workshop going.
Â
"Along with the wooden games, we now craft wooden tableware. People appreciate the beauty and the uniqueness of the natural wood pattern.
Â
"I studied how to design plates and was guided in this by the artisans who work with us. We don't use any artificial or chemical finishes to our tableware. The more a piece is used and washed, the more beautiful it becomes, especially when food is arranged over it."
