The Walrus & The Carpenter
£25.00
We blooming love these jigsaws, created by photographer, Simon Buckley. A really famous and beautiful Mancunian image this one, capturing a fearsome downpour at the bottom of Deansgate. With its gorgeous muted light and scurrying foreground figures, it reminds us of a Lowry painting – and it makes a fiendishly tricky puzzle! We source these jigsaws directly from Simon, an independent just like us. Shop small and support local creativity!

“The time has come,” the Walrus said,
“To talk of many things:
Of shoes and ships and sealing-wax,
Of cabbages and kings
And why the sea is boiling hot
And whether pigs have wings.”
