Discover the Beauty of Islamic Art Through Play
When you think of Islamic art, what comes to mind? Geometric tiles? Intricate calligraphy? Now imagine turning all that into a playful, hands-on experience.
That’s exactly what the Islamic Calligraphy Puzzle does.
This thoughtfully designed product combines creativity, learning, and cultural appreciation—all in one engaging puzzle set.
What Is the Islamic Calligraphy Puzzle?
The Islamic Calligraphy and Geometric Tile Puzzle is an educational toy that introduces children and adults to the beauty of Islamic design.
It includes 220 vibrant tile pieces:
- 48 yellow tiles

Packaged in a sturdy plastic box (20×20 cm), this puzzle offers endless design combinations inspired by traditional calligraphy and tile work from Iranian and Islamic architecture.

A Game with Meaning
Each tile is more than just a colored square—it’s a piece of history. The calligraphy puzzle introduces players to names, shapes, and design elements used in centuries-old architectural masterpieces. In one version of the game, players explore the diverse ways the name of the Prophet has been written in Islamic calligraphy. In another, they assemble shapes used in mosque designs or ancient tiles.

Their mission? To make Iranian and Islamic art accessible, enjoyable, and educational for the next generation.
They have already developed four culturally-rich games, all officially registered with the Children and Adolescent Intellectual Development Center.
Their belief is simple yet powerful: Art can be preserved through play.
Whether it’s a knotting game that reveals architectural form names or this calligraphy puzzle, every product is made to open a window into the vast world of Islamic culture.
