These are not your grandmother's jigsaw puzzles, either in materials or design. Stave Wooden Puzzles are carefully handcrafted - cut, sanded and polished - by a master craftsman. They have a huge inventory of images in stock, but can also make custom puzzles out of photographs, for example, so the piece will really have sentimental value on top of simply being a work of art. Prices range from about $200 to thousands, depending on the level of customization, the number of pieces and the size of the puzzle. They also carry several designs that are ready for immediate shipment if you need a gift right away. The Bubbles Puzzle, pictured, is priced at $417 online.
