Sizing Chart

Gerardus Mercator published his world map in 1569, introducing the cylindrical projection that still bears his name and fundamentally transforming how humanity navigated and understood the globe. It remains one of the most consequential documents in the history of science and cartography.

This hand-cut wooden jigsaw puzzle from Elms Puzzles is made to order by our artisans on a scroll saw and finished by hand in our workshop. Available in multiple sizes, it makes a remarkable gift for adults who love the history of cartography and handcrafted wooden puzzles. Own a piece of art history — handcrafted, unique, unmistakably Elms.
