‘The West Side of Highgrove House’ 1000-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

With this 1,000-piece 'The West Side of Highgrove House' detailed wooden jigsaw puzzle, relive one of His Majesty's favourite views of the gardens. The jigsaw features royal-themed whimsy pieces such as crowns, royal palaces, trees, and even corgis. All parts are precision laser-cut to ensure that they fit together perfectly.

Produced from an original watercolour by the then HRH The Prince Charles, Prince of Wales, portraying one of his favourite views around Highgrove Gardens, when put together, displays a stunning image of the Oak Pavilion, situated to the west of Highgrove House.

The oak pavilion's main feature is a handsome 200-year-old Cedar of Lebanon, which was one of the reasons that His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales was so interested in Highgrove as his country residence. The 18-metre tree dominated the garden and imparted a friendly atmosphere to the house with its vast dark emerald green plates of foliage, while its spreading limbs provided shade for the Terrace. Sadly, the tree began to decay, and with huge regret and a heavy heart, it was decided to fall it. It was too large to be removed, so His Royal Highness chose to raise a building over the butt of the cedar to celebrate its life. One of the lower branches was retained, and a hole was left in the roof for a self-sown oak sapling to grow and provide a living ceiling for the structure. Mark Hoare was commissioned as the designer, and the Tetbury church spire was used as inspiration.

This puzzle is a delight for both fine art and jigsaw puzzle collectors, and it comes in a royal purple cotton drawstring bag and box, making it a great gift. It is made in the heart of the British countryside from 4mm wood from sustainably managed forests. It includes irregularly shaped pieces for an added challenge, such as dissected corners, straight pieces within the puzzle, and non-straight pieces around the exterior. This puzzle is intended to last and can be enjoyed for years to come. It is sustainably constructed and incredibly durable.
