A piece of New York you can hold in your hands
The New York Wooden Puzzle is for everyone who left a piece of their heart in Times Square — and for those still saving up for the trip. Yellow cabs navigating crowded avenues, the Statue of Liberty standing tall, the dazzling neon billboards of Broadway, the Brooklyn Bridge spanning the East River — all captured in a 500-piece laser-cut wooden jigsaw that arrives in a wooden suitcase box fit for the gift it is. Each puzzle includes dozens of whimsy pieces shaped like New York icons: the letters N and Y, soaring airplanes, a street musician, a vintage streetlamp, and American cultural symbols.
What's inside the case
When you open the case, you'll find:
- A 500-piece wooden jigsaw puzzle of New York
- Dozens of whimsy pieces shaped as New York icons
- A wooden HDF suitcase box (doubles as storage and display)
- Premium gift-ready packaging
The suitcase case is designed to live on a shelf or a coffee table long after the puzzle is assembled — closed, it looks like a handsome travel keepsake; open, it's a tray ready for the next puzzle night.
Crafted from premium wood with 3D-realistic printing
Every New York in a Case puzzle is laser-cut from premium wood and finished with layer-by-layer volumetric UV printing. The result is a 3D-realistic illustration with depth and texture you can feel — colours, light and stone that come alive piece by piece.
Unlike cardboard puzzles, wooden pieces have weight, click together satisfyingly, and survive being assembled hundreds of times. Spilled coffee? Wipe it off. Dropped on the floor? Pick it up. This is a puzzle designed to be reassembled for a lifetime.
Unique whimsy pieces — every puzzle is a story
Whimsy pieces are figurative shapes hidden among the jigsaw — a tradition that goes back to the original wooden puzzles of the 1760s. In New York in a Case you'll find:
- The letters "N" and "Y"
- A soaring airplane
- A vintage streetlamp
- A street musician playing a tune
- A classic yellow cab
- A slice of authentic NY pizza
- The Statue of Liberty
Every assembly becomes a small treasure hunt. Children spot them first; adults notice the details on the third night.
