{"product_id":"dolphin-reef-wooden-puzzle","title":"Dolphin Reef Wooden Puzzle","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo dolphins curve toward each other in clear blue water. One leans down with a soft smile, the other rises to meet her. Around them, a ring of orange and pink coral glows in the sunlight. Tiny fish dart past. The water feels warm. The moment between the two dolphins feels like a quiet hello you got to watch from the dock. The Dolphin Reef Wooden Puzzle brings that scene to your table for a calm, rewarding build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout This Design\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis round wooden puzzle shows a pair of bottlenose dolphins meeting nose to nose in a sunlit reef. The water at the top is a soft Mediterranean blue, and the seafloor at the bottom is a busy garden of orange staghorn coral, pink anemones, purple sponges, and round yellow corals. Bubbles rise in tiny silver trails. Small fish weave between the coral fans on each side. The circular frame pulls the whole reef into a single porthole view, like you are looking through the window of a small submarine. When you finish the puzzle, the two dolphins look like old friends meeting at the same spot they always do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy People Love the Dolphin Reef Wooden Puzzle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDolphin lovers, marine biology fans, and anyone who keeps a beach photo on their desk reach for this one first. Kids love spotting the hidden whimsy pieces tucked into the reef. We cut a dolphin shape, a seahorse, a starfish, and a tiny anchor into the build. Parents tell us the hunt for the seahorse usually wins the night. The colors stay calm enough for a bedroom wall but bright enough to feel cheerful from across the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePremium Craftsmanship in Every Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dolphin Reef Wooden Puzzle is cut from 4mm basswood plywood, the same warm, light wood we use across our whole range. Basswood holds its shape over years and does not bend or fray the way cardboard does. Each piece is laser-cut, so the edges are crisp and the click between pieces is firm. The art is printed straight onto the wood with UV-cured inks, which means the bright corals and clear blue water stay rich even in a sunny room. The puzzle ships in a sturdy gift box with a printed cover so it doubles as the storage between builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 4mm basswood plywood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Round, cut from a rectangular panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrint: UV-cured, fade-resistant inks printed directly on the wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty: Level 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinished size and pieces, by size option:\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eKids: 18 cm \/ 7.1 in diameter, 106 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSmall: 24 cm \/ 9.4 in diameter, 198 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMedium: 33 cm \/ 13 in diameter, 246 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLarge: 39.5 cm \/ 15.6 in diameter, 454 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePieces: irregular shapes with hidden whimsy pieces themed to the design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging: recyclable gift box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: full-color reference poster to guide assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Thoughtful Gift for Ocean and Animal Lovers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one travels well as a birthday gift for a child who loves sea life or a housewarming present for a friend who lives near the coast. It works for retirement gifts, scuba divers, and anyone who has a saltwater tank at home. Display it in a sunroom, a kid's room, or a bathroom with beach decor and it fits right in. People often tell us it reminds them of a snorkel trip they took years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Assembly Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dolphin Reef is rated Level 3. Most builders anchor the round frame first, then drop in the two dolphin bodies as the center landmark, and finish by filling in the coral garden around the edge. Most builders finish the Small in one focused sitting, the Medium across a weekend or two, and the Large over several relaxed evenings. A full-color reference poster ships in the box, which helps when the orange corals on the left start to look like the orange corals on the right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Display or Store It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the last piece clicks in, slide a thin sheet of card under the panel, lift it as one disc, and brush off the dust. A round wooden frame in driftwood or pale oak suits the seaside feel best. It looks at home above a reading chair, in a kid's bedroom, or beside a row of shells on a hallway shelf. Hang it where afternoon light can catch the blue water, and the whole piece seems to ripple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Opus Puzzles","offers":[{"title":"Kids","offer_id":44402343542835,"sku":"YX40-KID","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small","offer_id":44383159812147,"sku":"YX40-S","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":44383159844915,"sku":"YX40-M","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":44383159877683,"sku":"YX40-L","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/3292\/2675\/files\/YX40.webp?v=1780553065","url":"https:\/\/www.opuspuzzles.com\/products\/dolphin-reef-wooden-puzzle","provider":"Opus Puzzles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
