Charming and full of character, this hand-painted wooden puzzle piece features a row of adorable koalas in bold retro tones — a nostalgic example of mid-century Australian craft toys or wall décor.
Originally part of a wooden puzzle set, this piece now tells a story of its own: a well-meaning child jammed the wrong piece in — and now it's stuck! A perfect conversation piece, it’s ideal for display, upcycling, or completing your vintage Australiana puzzle collection.
