Kevin Sadler wrote about it: Pelikan has begun producing their own designs recently and are focusing on animals/insects. They are all absolutely gorgeous and have a real character to them. I classify them as interlocking puzzles but not burrs I am not an expert, but I am sure that they count as Kumiki. The Ladybug is a good bit larger than the previous releases it stands out vibrantly in the living room (where my collection seems to be expanding much to the annoyance of Mrs S). It is made from Wenge and an incredibly red Padauk. This puzzle is just plain cute!  To make it more of a challenge, I immediately scrambled the pieces and made a pile before trying to reassemble. It is still not very difficult but did take me a few minutes to work out the order and how to interlock them properly. This is a must have just for its sheer beauty! This puzzle was crafted in Europe with absolutely fantastic quality. Each of the puzzles of Pelikan design are unparalleled in their class! Every piece of the puzzle is precisely cut and very well made; you cannot find its equal anywhere else. The diversity in wood makes each puzzle a unique masterpiece.
