About
What is a Slate Puzzle?
Slate Puzzle is a premium metal jigsaw puzzle made from metal and laser-etched with iconic artwork. It’s designed as both a challenging puzzle and a displayable art object.
What are Slate Puzzles made of?
Slate Puzzles are made from solid metal and precision laser-etched. This gives the puzzle a durable, matte finish and fine artwork detail.
How is a metal puzzle different from a cardboard puzzle?
Unlike cardboard puzzles, metal puzzles are rigid, long-lasting, and resistant to bending or wear. Slate Puzzles also have weight and texture, giving them a more premium feel and making them suitable for display after completion.
What size is the puzzle?
Each Slate Puzzle measures approximately 10 inches by 10 inches and is 1/8 inch thick.
How many pieces are in a Slate Puzzle?
Each puzzle contains 100 precision-cut metal pieces.
How hard is the puzzle?
Slate Puzzles are designed to be moderately challenging. Each metal piece can fit with every other piece, providing a unique challenge. The etched artwork encourages careful visual matching, making the puzzle more engaging than typical cardboard puzzles.
Are Slate Puzzles good for beginners?
Yes. While the puzzle is challenging, the 100-piece format makes it accessible for beginners while still enjoyable for experienced puzzlers.
Do the pieces lock together?
We keep a bit of "play" between the pieces. The pieces are laser-cut to fit together, but not so tight that you are fighting to squeeze them together. This gives a satisfying and stable final assembly.
Is this a good gift?
Slate Puzzle makes a unique gift for puzzle lovers, art lovers, and people who enjoy high-quality design objects. It works well as a birthday gift, holiday gift, or special occasion present.
Who are Slate Puzzles for?
They’re for people who enjoy puzzles, art, design, and well-made objects. Many customers also proudly display as decorative desk or shelf pieces after completing them.
Can the puzzle be framed or displayed?
Yes. Once assembled, the puzzle can be displayed on a shelf or framed for wall art.
Are Slate Puzzles eco-friendly?
Slate Puzzles are designed to be long-lasting and reusable, unlike disposable cardboard puzzles that can wear out over time.
Will the metal rust or tarnish?
No. The metal has a special coating, which protects it from rust and corrosion under normal indoor use.
Are the edges sharp?
No. The pieces are laser-cut and finished to remove sharp edges, making them safe to handle.
How is the puzzle packaged?
Each puzzle is packaged in a unique, protective box and cloth sleeve designed to keep the pieces secure during shipping.
Do you ship internationally?
Shipping options vary by location. International shipping availability and rates are shown at checkout.
How long does shipping take?
Shipping times depend on your location and selected shipping method. Estimated delivery times are provided at checkout.
What artwork do you use on your puzzles?
Slate Puzzles feature classic and iconic artwork selected for strong contrast and detail when etched into metal. We work with local artists, and even design ourselves!
Why did you create Slate Puzzle?
Slate Puzzle was created to combine the satisfaction of puzzling with the permanence of metal art — something you can enjoy assembling and then keep as a display piece. We have worked with all kinds and alloys of metal for years, and we believe that metal puzzles are something special and new.
