Market Place

 Bogarts, 485 pieces. A fun image where shape has to do a ton of the work because colors keep repeating. I forgot I hadn't taken a picture until I made the first shake to disassemble it, but you can still see some nice details in my photo! 7/10

Lizards

 Bogarts, 114 pieces. Really interesting imageless puzzle with tesselation-like lizards that weren't actually tesselated. I assembled it "upside down" based on the colored-in pieces, as it turned out. The side lizards were especially nice. 6/10 Stave scale

Kaleidoscope #2

Bogarts, 465 pieces. The last of these for a while!  Lovely floral image with fun edges.  8/10 Stave scale.

Kaleidoscope #3

Bogarts, 440 pieces. Another lovely kaleidoscope puzzle, with a high level of difficulty but very pleasant to assemble as each section gave some clues about what should happen next.  Pieces are just the right thickness and very well cut to fit.  8/10 Stave scale.

Kaleidoscope #1

Bogarts, 340 pieces. I ordered a set of kaleidoscope puzzles from Bogarts, and was not disappointed. These are solid, heirloom pieces, with repeated almost-but-not-the-same piece patterns or parts of pieces that interacted very well with the kaleidoscope pattern.  A delightful challenge.  8/10 Stave scale.

African Marketplace, Bogart's

584 pieces. A new maker for me--some very delicate protrusions on the whimsies, which were nonetheless in great shape. The cuts lacked the wit of the best Staves, but the difficulty and quality were comparable otherwise.  Really glad to have found them! 7/10
