The true test of a great jigsaw puzzle is how satisfying and consuming it is to put the pieces together. Between a finely cut wooden jigsaw puzzle of years gone by, versus the standard cardboard variety of today... well, there’s no comparison.

Did you know?

Fool's Gold puzzles are specially crafted so that the entire puzzle interlocks or "holds together" once its assembled. If you look at the "Back-to-Back Butterflies" picture below, Dave is holding and inspecting a finished puzzle, and not one piece is falling to the floor!

Look ma, no pictures!

Yogi Berra, the great New York Yankee catcher, once said, “You can observe a lot by watching.”

Well, we’ve observed a lot of people piece puzzles together. Some go straight for the edges, some work on small piles of similar colors, some avoid looking at the puzzle picture entirely, while others place the image front and center.

At Fool’s Gold, our puzzles do not include pictures of the final image. They are true puzzlers’ puzzles!

TRICKY PUZZLES

Fool’s Gold offers a wide variety of wooden jigsaw puzzles. This section highlights
some of our Tricky Puzzles, offering the assembler even more of a challenge.

Butterfly Series - Just when you think you're done....

Our Official Fool's Gold Baffling Butterflies Ruler!

Tricky Butterfly puzzle with ruler

Think you've solved either "Baffling Butterflies" or "Baffling Birds" (below),
well, not so fast, you still must past the Official Fool's Gold Ruler test.
Complete instructions are included with each puzzle.

 

"Baffling Butterflies"

Your mission (should you care to accept it) is to first piece together all of the butterflies, and then place them all carefully within the border of the puzzle. No forcing of any pieces is allowed!

"Baffling Birds"

Similar goal to Baffling Butterflies. Simply fit all
of the birds within the border of the puzzle.

Note: Not all of the pieces may beshown in
the two baffling puzzles depicted here.

Our "Back-to-Back Butterflies" puzzle is another original Fool's Gold trick puzzle. Both of the puzzle's front AND back are the exact same image. You won't know which side is which! And in case you didn't know, as a rule, no pictures are included with our puzzles. So if you truly want a challenge, have some time on your hands, or want to get back at somebody, then these puzzles are for you!


 

 

"Back-to-Back Butterflies"

Created especially for those die-hard puzzle enthusiasts.


It’s our first two-sided puzzle—with the identical beautiful butterfly image on the front AND on the back, all perfectly aligned so you won’t know which side is which.
