These puzzles marry Brabeau's nostalgic, story-rich Americana art with our heirloom wooden craftsmanship. We precision laser-cut each one from 4mm FSC-certified birch/basswood plywood sourced from Finland, then add themed whimsy pieces and irregular borders that echo the artwork's playful spirit. The collectible box packaging reflects the quality inside, and the sturdy wooden pieces invite you to assemble these scenes again and again.
