Description
This colourful world map jigsaw puzzle brings the whole globe to your table in 300 pieces. The map is drawn in a vintage style, with countries picked out in sunny yellow, leaf green, soft pink, red and orange against a teal-blue sea, all framed by a cream border with fine red lines. Continents, oceans and many countries are labelled in a clear, old-fashioned typeface, and a row of little clock faces runs across the top beneath the World Map heading, with small globes on either side. Finished, it measures 50cm long and 36cm wide.
Laid out, it sits comfortably on a kitchen table, a dining table or a desk, large enough to feel absorbing yet small enough to finish without taking over the room. Three hundred pieces makes a relaxed project for a rainy weekend or a few quiet evenings, and working your way across the continents is a gentle chance to brush up on where everything sits. We think it works as well for a shared session with friends or family as it does for a peaceful hour on your own. Once it is complete, the map is cheerful enough to leave out for a day or two before it goes back in its tube.
It is made from card, paper and plastic. The pieces come bagged inside a round lidded tube printed with more of the map, and a colour sheet of the finished puzzle is included, so you always have the whole picture to work from. When you are done, the pieces and the sheet tuck back into the tube, which stands neatly on a shelf between sessions. Keep it somewhere dry, as card does not take kindly to damp, and brush away any dust with a soft dry cloth. The tube is easy to wrap and fun to open, which makes this a simple, thoughtful gift to give.
