A Touch of European Elegance: Calypto Puzzles
By The Yorkshire Jigsaw Store
If you're after a puzzle that feels just a little bit different—something with a touch more sophistication on the table and a beautifully tactile finish in the hand—allow us to introduce Calypto. This stylish European brand has landed at The Yorkshire Jigsaw Store, and we're thoroughly smitten with the range on offer.
Calypto puzzles are all about bringing a slice of art gallery elegance into your puzzling routine, whether that's through sun-soaked travel scenes, playful wildlife, or reproductions of some of the world's most beloved paintings.
Poster-Style Travel: Piece by Piece Around the World
One of the standout features of the Calypto range is its gorgeous 500-piece "Poster Style" collection. Each of these puzzles measures a neat 33cm x 48cm and is designed to be built, admired, and even framed afterwards as a striking piece of wall art. Titles like Amsterdam, Paris, Provence, Italy and Les Alpes let you journey across Europe from your own dining table, each rendered in bright, subtle colour and cut with real precision from a sturdy 2.1mm board.
If you're further afield in your travel dreams, the Caribbean, Iles Palawan, Polynésie Française and Fruits d'Été designs bring a warmer, more exotic flavour to the collection.
Soft-Touch and Extra Large: A Puzzle You Can Really Feel
For puzzlers who love a more tactile, luxurious experience, Calypto's 500XL range is an absolute treat. Finished with a distinctive soft-touch coating, titles like Medina de Fes, Mount Fuji, Giraffes and Seabed combine chunkier, easier-to-handle pieces with a beautifully smooth surface finish—perfect for a relaxed evening at the puzzle board.

A Gallery on Your Table: The Fine Art Series
Calypto also offers a wonderful nod to the art world with its 1000-piece fine art puzzles. Recreate masterpieces from Claude Monet (Nymphéas), Pierre-Auguste Renoir (La Yole and Venice – The Doge's Palace), Vincent van Gogh (Champ de Blé avec Cyprès), and Paul Signac (Entrée du Port de La Rochelle), alongside stunning landscape scenes like the Dolomites and Mont Saint-Michel. Each one is cut from 1000 unique, soft-touch finished pieces—ideal for the puzzler who loves art as much as they love a good challenge.
