A jigsaw puzzle featuring a glossy, richly colored print of an original watercolor painting of a Georgian eye miniature brooch in a snake (or ouroboros) setting, echoing the romance, gift-giving, and guessing-game nature of the original jewelry phenomenon. 252 pieces, 11" by 14", packaged in a white metal tin box. THE HISTORY: Lover's Eyes were a jewelry trend c.1785-1830 of brooches set with tiny watercolor portraits on ivory. Since they were cropped to eyes, they were in many ways more direct and intimate than traditional miniature portraits; but also because they were just eyes, they were often used as daring public testimonies of clandestine love affairs with mystery lovers.
