Another from my backlog (it will embarrassing to ultimately search all the posts with the word “backlog” — I went a little nuts in 2023-2024 in terms of buying puzzles!). This is from WerkShoppe, “Agatha’s Apothecary”, by Helen Black (Advocate-Art.com). The description says it’s “foil”, which I’m not quite sure what that means, but there are different textures and sheens in some of the patterns on the black hat. Which I now wish I had tried to photograph, but it’s all disassembled, so too late!
WerkShoppe also has an interesting piece cut — in addition to the basic jigsaw piece cut, they sometimes shift that basic cut so that it makes angular corners or turns the corners more into their own knob.
…. update: ooh, a good picture on Reddit that captures the difference in sheen / texture: https://www.reddit.com/r/Jigsawpuzzles/comments/1ok7jlf/great_find_homegoods_7_was_meant_to_be/
