Puzzle is a creative and intellectual hobby
Many people ignorantly call a puzzle or compare it with a mosaic, but this is not so, and you should not do this.
What's the Difference?
Mosaic is primarily a kind of applied art, for its creation, multi-colored elements of a bizarre shape and non-standard size are needed. They can be from various materials, for example, glass, stone, porcelain, ceramics and others. And already connected and fastened together in any sequence, at first sight not suitable to each other, these elements turn into a mosaic. Secondly, it is only thanks to imagination and fantasy that the person has put everything together, even without assuming at the beginning of the process what the final result will be. A puzzle is an already existing image, divided into separate elements, which are intended for assembly during leisure. So do not compare it with the great works of mosaics.
