Puzzle
The modern puzzle was born in 1767, when 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 aim was to teach geography to children, who had to reconstruct the complete image by arranging the pieces in the correct order. Today the puzzle has become a form of entertainment beloved by millions of people around the world and has also taken on a symbolic meaning referring to the patience required to obtain a complete image from individual pieces.
Each puzzle piece has its own role and its own place within the image, and it cannot be understood 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 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 has sought to reproduce the game of the pieces that make up the puzzle, using silver and transparent enamels, with a graphically and chromatically innovative 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
