Van Hulsdonck, Lemons (and an article about puzzles)

The Washington Post ran an article about puzzle shortages in the lockdown. With Liberty shutting down and Stave running out of in-stock puzzles, that seems to be the case for wooden puzzles too. I love wooden puzzles and I love sharing them with people who enjoy them. I've had some success with small-scale lending swaps. I'm open to more.

Artifact Ecru, 232 pieces. Small piece count compensated for by the hexagonal shapes (interrupted by the occasional whimsy, mostly fruit). I like the hexagonal shape because it creates some visual discontinuities. One area of the puzzle was basically all black and I had to guess based on piece shape and crossing my fingers; fortunately, it worked.  3/5
