CeacoFoil Puzzle - Turtles Galore - 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

The foil covered pieces felt very unique. I really enjoyed putting this one together.

The foil of the puzzle made this super challenging, but we did it. Downside is that we were missing a piece.

This is the first foil puzzle I ever bought. Never ever again it is so difficult to see color due to the reflection it gave me headaches. You have to stand over it constantly to attempt matching pieces. When it was finally done there was a piece missing which I had kept looking for several times since it was part of the land.

The foil makes this an extremely aggravating puzzle to put together. You have to stand directly over each pc to see the details and colors. We tried multiple light sources and finally put it back in the box.REQIRES ABUNDANCE AMOUNT OF PATIENCE.

Received this puzzle for christmas. It's a beautiful picture of sealife under water but unfortunately for me, it was very difficult to discern the actual color of individual puzzle pieces. That is because of the "foil treatment" on each piece. I tried many times to get the lighting in the room just right. No matter what I tried it seemed the only way to do this puzzle would be standing up and completely straight up and down directly over this puzzle. The bottom line is , it's a gorgeous puzzle but I got tired of looking at each piece 20 times over. Just too much work and was not enjoyable. I finally gave up after doing about a quarter of it. I do realize that everyones eyesight differs and of course it could just be me. For me not enjoyable. I will be careful in the future to really look at puzzles with special coatings etc before buying.
