John and Justin Madden own and design puzzles for the finest hand-cut wooden jigsaw puzzle company in the world. PAR Puzzles has been around since 1932 when the company was cutting puzzles for the Dukes and Duchesses of York and Devonshire, Clare Booth and Henry Luce, Marilyn Monroe, and the wealthiest financiers of the oil, steel and automotive trades. Gold Coast families made these unique, one of a kind puzzles a family tradition and still today these works of art, along with their 500+ hand-drawn trademarked silhouettes, are made even more detailed and custom then when they were first introduced.
Today you will find that our hope is to make a social and environmental impact on the world as the current times we are in justifies that focus. We aim to add charitable contributions as an aspect of each of our sales in hopes to spread philanthropic mindsets on all those so fortunate to be able to own one of our works.
We want everyone to be able to join in the tradition of putting a PAR Puzzle together so please have a look at our L-Class editions which are limited offerings that you can purchase and trade (or re-sell) that have hand-drawn piece designs and are cut with cost efficiency in mind.
