Cloudberries Mountain jigsaw - 1000 pieces, 68 x 48.5 cm

Description

Mountain by Cloudberries sums up a mountain in a single shape: a pale triangle glowing against a field that is dark green and black on the left and shifts into pink and orange on the right. No detail, no horizon, only colour sliding slowly from one shade into the next.

That makes the solving different work from a landscape puzzle. You are not looking for a roof tile or a branch but sorting by tone: a fraction darker green, a fraction warmer pink. It is a puzzle to do in stages, with the full-size poster that comes with it propped up beside you for reference.

The box holds 1000 pieces; completed, the puzzle measures 68 x 48.5 cm. The pieces are extra thick and have a linen texture you can feel. The puzzle belongs to the Poster Puzzles range by the British company Cloudberries.

A present for anyone who likes graphic, minimalist work and only enjoys a puzzle once it puts up a fight. Finished, it is also an image you could frame.
