Steve Malavolta lives and works in Albuquerque, New Mexico and travels the country selling his puzzles at art shows. The puzzles range in price from $50 to $3,000. He welcomes personalized and custom commissions. Certain designs are reproduced but all puzzles are individually cut making them one of a kind pieces. Even if a design is redone, woods will still vary. The best way to purchase a puzzle is to refer to the gallery section,  then pick a style and price range. Steve will either email photos of what is available from existing creations or make one to order.

For those of you who wish to do it yourself, Steve is in the process of making available kits including pre-finished, cut and sized wood blanks, blades, sterling silver, patterns and instructions for many of his designs. You can contact Steve with any questions or to place an order at::
