    I am so glad you did this comparison review. I love Olga Suvarova art and I have all five from Pomegranate and the two from Art and Fable.
    Both companies have excellent, quality puzzles and boxes. When I put together the Tamer from pomegranate, my puzzle wish was that Art and fable would have Olga Suvarova images in their selection. Because of their deep saturation of color and the feel of their puzzle pieces. (Paper Blanks is another puzzle company that would be excellent for her images.) I was so excited when I saw art and fable had in their selection The Tamer and a new one of Joan of Ark! I have each one in my puzzle collection and I am one happy puzzler.

      Hi Sybil!! Thanks for your kind words. I really like both of these brands a lot and will continue to purchase puzzles from both brands. The A&F puzzles are not cheap - I only purchase them when they are on sale.

    Interesting to see your view on two brands with the same image. Not surprised you favoured the Art & Fable but they are rather expensive. 💰 A list of the puzzles you have bought is helpful but having a very good memory for images helps in not buying one you already have. There are many times when I have seen the same image but with a different title from various brands. One way I check if I am not sure, is to screenshot the image, pop it into Google images and see what appears. I too have a list of puzzles I have bought over the years. Look forward to your next video.

      @persnicketypuzzler  9 месяцев назад

      Hi there! I wish I had a good enough memory where I could remember all the puzzles I have purchased, but I absolutely do not! Your idea of screenshotting the image is a good one though, and I'll have to try that. If you know of any puzzles with the same artwork on two different brands, I'd love to hear about it. I'd like to do the same comparison video on different brands again sometime in the future. Thanks for your comments and for watching! :0)

      @@persnicketypuzzler I can tell you about one as I mentioned it recently on another puzzler's RUclips. The puzzle was White Mountain Winter Games as a 1000 piece, artist Trevor Mitchell. I had done that as a part of a 500 Gibsons double called Wigwams and Woolly Hats. The Woolly Hats one is the same image. You may find it difficult to get Gibsons puzzles in the US. Another one is Paw Drops & Sugar Mice artist Steve Read. There is a Trefl version of this. Try googling those titles and see what you get.

    I have tried both brands. Though A&F has more saturation, my biggest turnoff was that the pieces do not slide whatsoever when you want that snap/click sound due to that waxy soft touch. I even gave away this brand due to this, and because of false fits. However, the best puzzle box stand on the market, to me, is A&F's due to better use, doesn't flop over, and portability. When mine wears out, I plan to make one.
    I have always wanted The Tamer but never wanted to purchase this brand again...but then you tell me Pomegranate, one of my favorite brands, carries it?!!! I'm getting it!
    I also love that you actually measured with calipers piece thickness. I have calipers too for the same reason! Is this something you intentionally bought or hubby already had it? I am so glad Pomegranate is thicker.
    Great video, Shannon. It seems like we have the same persnickety taste, LOL!!

    • @persnicketypuzzler
      @persnicketypuzzler  9 месяцев назад

      Hi BettyC! You crack me up!! We definitely must be related! You are absolutely right about the A&F puzzle pieces not sliding around. That did bother me somewhat, but I did love the Velvet-Touch box! So happy that you are going to purchase Pomegranate's "The Tamer" piece! It is just gorgeous!
      Regarding the calipers - I have them because I used to make jewelry, and I needed them to measure beads and other jewelry components. Glad that I still have them to measure puzzle piece thickness now!
