Caring for your Paheli puzzle
Your Paheli puzzle is made to be revisited — solved across quiet evenings, shared across tables, packed away carefully, then returned to again months later.
With a little care, it'll stay beautiful for years to come.
Storage
Store your puzzle flat in a dry place away from direct sunlight, humidity, or excessive heat.
Wood naturally reacts to moisture over time, so we recommend avoiding damp surfaces, balconies, window ledges, or areas near water.
Every Paheli puzzle includes a cotton storage pouch to safely store pieces between sessions.
Cleaning
Use a soft dry cloth — cotton or microfibre works perfectly.
If a piece needs extra cleaning, use a cloth very lightly dampened with water and immediately dry the piece afterward.
Avoid:
- soaking pieces
- wet wipes
- sprays or cleaning chemicals
- alcohol-based cleaners
Handling
Handle pieces gently, especially whimsy pieces with delicate shapes and finer edges.
When assembling, avoid forcing pieces into place. If something doesn't fit naturally, it probably belongs somewhere else.
For the best experience, we recommend puzzling on a clean, flat surface with enough room to sort comfortably.
Around children & pets
Paheli puzzles contain small pieces and should be kept away from very young children and pets when unattended.
If you ever misplace a piece, reach out to us at reachout@thepaheli.in — we'll always try our best to help.
Displaying completed puzzles
Most Paheli puzzles are designed in a display-friendly format and fit beautifully into standard A4 frames and trays.
For permanent framing, puzzle glue can be applied to the back of the assembled puzzle.
For temporary displays, a flat frame without glass works beautifully too.
Built to last
Wooden puzzles age differently from cardboard puzzles. They're sturdier, more tactile, and designed to be returned to again and again.
Some puzzles get finished once.
The good ones stay on tables a little longer.
