From early last century, Victory designed puzzles that included shaped pieces designed to look like objects that complimented the art of the puzzle. The individual craftsmen added these pieces 'on a whim' as they were cutting individual puzzles. These whimsical, or 'whimsy' pieces as they became known, brought delight to the puzzle enthusiasts of the day.

Today, all of our laser cut puzzles include lots of whimsy pieces which are sure to give you a delightful puzzling experience. In fact, you will find many of our whimsies are multi-part, requiring 2 or even 3 puzzle pieces to be joined together to complete a single whimsy. All of our whimsies include accent cuts that give added definition to the individual piece - which we're sure will put a smile on your face!

Individual whimsies are hand drawn and are designed to compliment the art of the puzzle; for example, you'll find birds, boats and surfers in a sea themed puzzle and buildings and famous landmarks in a city themed puzzle. Every Victory puzzle also includes our signature V for Victory hand whimsy - we recommend saving this whimsy for the last piece of the puzzle, in celebration of your own victory in solving the puzzling challenge!
