AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Puzzle
The modern puzzle was born in 1767, when the English cartographer John Spilsbury created the first educational puzzle. He took a wooden geographical map and cut it into various pieces, each depicting a single country. The goal was to teach children geography, who had to reconstruct the complete image by fitting the pieces together in the correct order. Today, the puzzle has become a form of entertainment loved by millions around the world and has also taken on a symbolic meaning, referring to the patience needed to assemble a complete picture from individual pieces.
Every piece of a puzzle has its own role and placement within the image, and it is not understandable on its own if separated from the image it belongs to. The puzzle thus becomes a celebration of collaboration and convergence, where the parts only make sense when integrated into an image that contains them, just as the image itself owes its completeness to the presence of all the parts that compose it.
Urso wanted to recreate the puzzle game using silver and transparent enamels, with an absolutely innovative graphic and chromatic effect.

Seller's Story
All Urso Luxury collections are unique in style and craftsmanship. Rooted in Italian tradition, Urso Luxury is quite the opposite of today's mass production operations. Giuseppe, his brother Lucio and his son Riccardo are creators of most of Urso's designs. While the brand relies mostly on local artists and workshops, they are also working to incorporate the latest technologies collaborating with partners in other parts of the world. Urso Luxury's goal, however, is to continue to use the traditional Jewelery making methods, which are increasingly endangered in the industry, that make their thoughts so special and sought after.
It requires 100 operations, superb artistry, master craftsmen, and a lot of love in a week to produce an Urso Luxury pen. In today's mass-production Urso Luxury is the epitome of slow handmade designs, bringing the best local artisanal skills and techniques to produce world-class luxury accessories
