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 several pieces, each depicting a single country. The objective was to teach geography to children, who had to reconstruct the complete image by fitting the pieces in the correct order. Today the puzzle has become a form of entertainment loved by millions of people worldwide and has also taken on a symbolic meaning that references the patience needed to obtain a complete image starting from individual pieces.
Each piece of a puzzle has its own role and its own placement within the image and is not understandable by itself if separated from the image that contains it. The puzzle thus becomes a celebration of collaboration and convergence, where the parts make sense only if 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 reproduce the game of the pieces that compose the puzzle, 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
