And just to be totally clear in case you didn’t finish the video - I was NOT missing that center piece. I found it in an extra envelope that I didn’t know was in the puzzle bag. I’ve never heard of any Lazels puzzles having missing pieces, but I did ask them what their policy is.
They said if a brand new puzzle has a missing piece, they will replace the entire puzzle. If you lose a piece yourself, they will cut a plain titanium piece to replace it (it is impossible to get the pattern to match without remaking the entire puzzle).
The puzzle I solved today is called the Azure 473, if you want to keep an eye out for it on Ebay (expect to spend $$$$$ though!)

[@KarenPuzzles]

Hi guys, just to be 100% clear in case you didn’t finish the video, the piece was not missing! If you paid that much money for a puzzle, it would be understandably disappointing if it was, but it was right there in an envelope I didn’t see. However, just to cover my bases, I did ask Lazels what their missing piece policy is, and they said if a brand new puzzle has a missing piece, they will replace the entire puzzle. If you lose a piece yourself later on, they will cut a plain titanium piece to replace it (it is impossible to get the pattern to match without remaking the entire puzzle).

[@tealpolaroid]

The part about if you lose a piece later on... is very good customer service. I wonder what it costs for an individual piece. I shall look.

[@LJG7654]

I think you made it really clear through the whole thing that you weren't blaming Lazels! But that is a great policy for them to have regarding missing pieces...

[@Boxofcare666]

I wonder why they were in an envelope instead with rest of the pieces

[@emma70707]

​@@Boxofcare666, yeah, it makes sense for the blue rectangle ones, but that center piece seem to be with the same pattern as the rest of them, so it would seem to require extra work on the company's part.

[@miradrgn]

when i was watching i just figured it was just a decorative hole, it's a puzzle with gaps already so having a nice symmetrical little hole in the middle honestly doesn't look bad

[@HanaTheRussell]

Damn Karen!! Those beauty shots at the end. You're really showing your talent not just as a puzzler but also a videographer. I'm so impressed. I think that's something that a lot of viewers forget about KZbinrs. Most most most youtubers don't have a team shooting / editing videos for them. So on top of whatever skill they have that they're showcasing, they have amazing videography skills as well. Bravo!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Thank you! Though I did all of the lighting effects by just moving my phone flashlight across the puzzle just out frame 😅

[@ad6449]

I hear Lazel calling you know to hire you as their art director. What a gorgeous puzzle this is and you showed it off perfectly.

[@christinedurkin3849]

As soon as you placed that missing piece into the middle area I thought the center piece must have been intentional with such a beautifully shaped puzzle. I love that Lazels tucks those pieces away so you have a guaranteed satisfying finish. Amazing puzzle making and puzzle solving on display!

[@nahmastay3300]

I didn’t even think about that but you’re right!!! Such a clever idea

[@mariannapapikyan4123]

Indeed, thank you Karen for the cm !! I really appreciate :)

[@sidhawker2779]

Can’t help but wonder if the last pieces were packaged separately to help set up those final, cinematic, satisfying shots

[@KarenPuzzles]

They said they separated the last pieces out in some of the earliest releases, but they don't do that anymore. It was definitely extra satisfying being forced to do them last though!

[@flowerdolphin5648]

I do like that they didn't connect the final blue pieces to the rest of the puzzle, so you can leave the cutouts if you wanted to. I prefer the rectangles empty, it adds depth to the artwork. Same with the center piece, it looks so nice when it is missing ^^ I think more puzzle companies should intentionally leave out sections in the middle. It would make for a satisfying puzzling experience imo.

[@lesliemandic9673]

Oh, I agree FlowerDolphin. I think it looked really unusual yet beautiful with those pieces absent

[@paulabender6615]

If that was the case, she would almost be done with the 9,000 piece puzzle. Lol!!! 😊💕💕💕

[@sillyface6950]

Interesting that you prefer them unfilled. The whole time my brain was feeling like something was off with the rectangles. The moment she finally filled it was super satisfying and relieving.

[@flowerdolphin5648]

@@sillyface6950 haha, goes to show how brains prefer different things ^^ maybe it's because I used to cut a lot of paper snowflakes and do lots of mosaics as a child, but something about "the space between" is just super satisfying to me.

[@queendomofkiki]

That shot of the center piece falling into place was literally the most satisfying thing ever. Especially after the whole arc of it possibly being lost and looking for it everywhere. Such a great video! ♥

[@KarenPuzzles]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@jankarel6454]

I'd love to do a puzzle like this, but I'd need a good way to display it after it was finished. No way could something this beautiful go back in a box!

[@kurtilein3]

these small picture frames work, if you can find one that works when it comes to design and dimensions. Or get a custom frame made for it.

[@rifleraft]

I loved the Barbie bit! Funny how the puzzle is so small it looks properly sized in Barbie's hand!

[@Mac_an_Mheiriceanaigh]

LOL I didn't make that connection until you mentioned it!!!

[@lukesmithkaz]

That was probably my favorite puzzle you've done on this channel! I really loved how each section had a unique connector shape, it added another little puzzle that made the whole puzzle easier when you solved it. And your videography of the final puzzle was great! You did a really fantastic job of showing just how beautiful the puzzle is.

[@ChelsBreeze]

I just wanted to say that the filming of the puzzels was beautiful, with the lighting it looked like stock footage! Really great job!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Thank you! It was just my phone flashlight that I was waving back and forth 😅

[@ChelsBreeze]

@@KarenPuzzles sometimes it doesn’t take anything fancy to get cool effects, but it really did look very sharp in the video! You gave them great promo material, and it really was a stunning piece.

[@Alex_Off-Beat]

Yes! I've been waiting for you to do this one ever since she mentioned it the first Lazels video! Edit: This has seriously got to be one of if not the most beautiful puzzle in existence! It seriously looks more like an intricate piece of antique costume jewelry than a jigsaw puzzle!

[@KarenPuzzles]

Yes, it's a real piece of art!

[@teijaflink2226]

Makes sence that they only reliesed 100, it's an art piece that propably will be very sought after in the future for puzzle enthusiasts.

Karen, this puzzle is STUNNING! Thank you so much for sharing with us. Most of us will never get to see these puzzles in person and so I'm so grateful I can experience them in this way

[@thelonboots]

gorgeous cinematography! Also I appreciate how you kept the drama of the final pieces, v honest and relatable. Love the Lazel solves.

[@KarenPuzzles]

It made good drama but it was stressful in the moment. I love Lazels so much I really didn't want to be missing a piece!

[@momothebug]

Karen: "You can't touch these pieces because you don't want to get the oils from your hands all over them." Also Karen, 19:53 : *panics and runs hands all over the puzzle*

[@KarenPuzzles]

haha, I did touch it a little bit 👀

[@maker0824]

it was such a curse knowing that it wasn’t supposed to be touched. I physical recoiled anytime the fingers came close. When it was fully touched my entire body tensed sooooo much.

[@WallinGaming]

It wasn't until 25:18 that I suddenly remembered how small the puzzle actually was, LOL! Great job completing this one, it looks beautiful - although as much as I love it, I'm not sure I'd be able to handle a puzzle that tiny. Congratulations again on finishing!

This is one of the most beautiful puzzles I have ever seen. I signed up for their announcements. Also, by having that last piece set aside, it only made the puzzle have more of an emotional experience. I love the whole concept of this. Amazing.

[@teijaflink2226]

Good they sent it her for free, probably got some new customers after this video.

[@biancabm90]

These metal puzzles look like jewelry, absolutely stunning! Also, I'd love to try and do them with gloves instead of tweezers. Touching those pieces looks like it would be totally satisfying!

[@steved2701]

My thoughts, too. Use surgical gloves. I certainly wouldn't want to damage the surface of this puzzle!

[@miriam4235]

The way that centre piece just glided in! 🤩

[@MsVickster12]

Fun video - beautiful puzzle! I think they must put the final pieces in special envelopes for the same kind of, almost ceremonial, experience you had finishing the puzzle. It looked beautiful without the final pieces. And then - TaDa! - a crowing glory! 😀. Fantastic video at the end admiring the puzzle...the movement and lighting...stunning! 😀

[@richardjohnson6353]

I encountered something similar to this in an apartment building I lived in. The box claimed that there were 20,000 pieces, and it appeared that it was a solid color. The box also said that tweezers were included. Now that I’ve seen this video, I wish that I had examined it more closely, but I feared it. Where I am living now, I’m “the Puzzle Guy.” So when someone discovered a single piece, they brought it to me. I didn’t measure it, but it appeared to be the same size as the pieces you displayed. It was an edge piece from a cardboard puzzle, and on the bottom side of the piece, there was a capital “B” and a partial letter “A” which I had only encountered once before. I took it to the puzzle librarian to see if she had that puzzle somewhere in her collection; she did not, sadly. I love your videos (I’m already subscribed!).
