A thoughtfully curated collection

We carefully inspect every returned box. Our staff counts pieces, repairs torn edges, and ensures that the next person who opens the box has exactly the same perfect experience as the first.

The library includes everything from classic fine art and vintage botanical prints to modern gradient gradients, shaped puzzles, and mystery builds.

Quick Answers

What happens if a piece is missing?

Don't worry, it happens to the best of us! Just let us know when you return the box. We have a dedicated team that attempts to craft replacement pieces, or we move the puzzle to our crafting donation bin.

Are there late fees?

We ask that members return puzzles within three weeks. If you need more time, you can renew your checkout once online or by calling the café. We don't charge punitive late fees, but accounts hold pending limits if items are vastly overdue.

Can I reserve a specific puzzle?

Yes, active members can place a hold on up to one puzzle at a time using our online catalogue system. We will set it aside behind the counter for 48 hours.
