Category: Art, Insight, Material
Mosaic puzzle comprises of various colored cubes and the chopsticks with which pick them up. There are no rules; players create their own. The cubes are from tagua nuts found in South American Tropical rain forest.
The Tagua nut is an extremely hard nut that comes from the Ivory nut palm. Its endosperm can be carved and polished like ivory, making it a botanical alternative to elephant ivory.
