Jigsaw designs, wood, cut by Addison J. Marshall. 17 pieces.

1 semi-circular piece, not carved or cut.

3 matching pieces that are completely cut out with the maple-leaf design. Maple leaves are cut out of dark brown wood.
1 rectangular frame with cut-out designs around an oval center section, all in light-colored wood. Some cracks and some small sections missing, about 90% complete.
2 matching cut-out pieces that are roughly triangular with leaves and stems carved around exterior. These two are light-color wood.
1 larger dark-brown piece, roughly triangular shape with carved stem, leaves, and petals that is a symmetrical design. This has one small piece missing from it.
1 large, roughly rectangular frame piece of light-colored wood that has inward sloping vertical sides, surrounded by leaves and stems in a symmetrical pattern. Broken in two pieces.
1 medium brown rectangular piece that has cut-out maple leaves, stems, and fanciful fruit in a rough rectangle in a rough symmetrical pattern with a few pieces missing.
1 dark brown corner section that is cut out with leaves, stems, and curved shapes with at least one small piece broken off.
1 small tan leaf and stem that might be part of the large frame that is broken into two pieces.
1 light tan rectangular piece with carved stems and leaves on either side of a wide central section. This could be the back support for the larger frame of a similar color.
1 small maple-leaf design cut out in medium brown.
1 medium-brown corner piece with a maple leaf and a stem and perhaps fanciful fruit.
1 medium-brown cut-out portion of a leaf apparently broken from something else.
