A ribbon cut puzzle has pieces which are all similar square shapes that line up in neat columns and rows creating a grid pattern. A random cut puzzle is quite different. The pieces can come in all shapes and sizes and, when the puzzle is complete, it usually has an abstract pattern with the quirky shaped pieces adding character to the standard jigsaw puzzle.The Cobble Hill puzzle range was established in 2005 with the desire to bring healthy activities to kids, families and adults.

The random-cut pieces add an element of intrigue. The textured linen print paper is both elegant-looking and functional in reducing glare from artificial light.
