68 pieces, but actually worth it because of the irregular edge/lack of any images. Designed to illustrate the four color map theorem. Fun! 4/5

Colour Study, Squares with Concentric Circles, Wasily Kandinsky
240 pieces. Would have been a decent puzzle, with curliques to keep things interesting, except that a bunch of pieces arrived still stuck together, and one was broken. Argh. 2.5/5

Vasily Kandinsky, Yellow-Red-Blue
Nikolyaaa, 249 pieces, laser cut, like Wentworth's difficult cut. A little small for me but I really like this cut, which puts colors in unexpected places. 4/5
Cuaco Quilt, Alfredo Arreguín
Wentworth, 500 pieces. Not quite as fantastic as the other Quilt/Arreguín puzzle from Wentworth, but lots of fun to put the colors together. 4/5

Ong Khan, Artifact
192 pieces. Challenge provided by the fact that the pieces all have the same connectors and are cut in a repeating pattern, as well as some subtle color shifts and unusual proportions. 3/5

Van Gogh Landscapes, double-sided
150 pieces, Artifact. A bit harder than expected for its size because of the double-sidedness, but that was ultimately not that hard to distinguish. 4/5
So Goghs the Night, treat
170 pieces, Stave. Very nice--the pieces fit together, but with just a few gaps to make it a bit of a challenge. 8/10
