URSO - Fountain pen Puzzle in sterling silver and green...

ib: in Steel Refill system: Converter Transparent green enamel The pen is supplied with a box and a 24-month Warranty Certificate. 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.
