Tessellating Fish Puzzle

A unique puzzle design inspired by the tessellations of M.C. Escher

This puzzle pattern is comprised of two fish shapes that form a hexagonal tiling pattern. Groups of fish form the individual puzzle pieces. The puzzle oly has 20 pieces but is deceptively tricky to put back together.

I highly recommend visiting Tessellations by Recognizable Figures, an amazing online resource on the workings of Escher’s tiling patterns.

The design has also been used for a custom screwdriver case engraving. The tiling pattern seamlessly wraps around the case.
