Oleg Pochikaev is the creator and visionary behind Palmaris Puzzles, based in Calgary, Alberta. With a passion for craftsmanship and modern technology, Oleg designs and handcrafts wooden jigsaw puzzles that are unlike any others on the market. Each puzzle features a double-sided design: one side showcases high-quality, UV-printed images, while the other side reveals an intricately engraved story that connects with the front artwork, creating a unique and immersive puzzle experience.

Oleg’s commitment to innovation and quality has been recognized with the prestigious “Made in Alberta” award, and his successful Kickstarter project helped him bring Palmaris Puzzles to a wider audience. Made from 1/4″ poplar plywood and produced using precision laser cutting, his puzzles deliver both artistic beauty and a tactile experience that captivates and inspires puzzle enthusiasts. Oleg’s puzzles reflect his dedication to delivering memorable, high-quality products that celebrate creativity, craftsmanship, and the rich stories behind each design, making them a perfect blend of art and play.
