A classic icon of 20th century design that functions as a toy and an art piece at the same time, Animal Puzzle, or 16 Animali was Italian designer Enzo Mari first project for Danese. Launched in 1957, it was a huge puzzle with double function: a puzzle object and also a "construction game" that allows a free composition of elements. Mari applied his theories of problem-solving to create a group of simply carved animal shapes – including a hippo, snake, giraffe and camel – that join together to form a rectangle.

Since 2003, Danese has produces a limited edition each in oak, in the original dimensions.
