Collage Block wooden letters – College veneer dark 5-20cm

A name on the nursery door, a year in the hallway or lettering on the shop counter: with these wooden letters in the College Block font, you put together your own text character by character. Each letter in dark real wood veneer is available individually. They are made for your wall, your door or your shop window.

What changes for you

• You create exactly the lettering you need. You choose freely from capital letters, numbers and special characters. And you order each character individually.
• Your text looks like real wood, not print. That comes from the dark veneer with its visible grain and the typical brown laser edge.
• You can fix the wooden letters flat almost anywhere, on doors, furniture or signs. The veneer is only 0.6 mm thin and can be glued or drilled.
• You choose the finish yourself. The wood is untreated and can be covered, painted or oiled until it suits your room.
• You will find the right size for every spot. Choose heights from 5 to 20 cm, from a small door sign to large wooden letters for the wall.

Why these wooden letters make a difference in everyday life

Wooden lettering you have put together yourself turns a blank wall into a personal place. Instead of shop-bought decor, it shows your name, your favourite word or your house number. The dark veneer brings calm and real material into the room. On a counter or in a shop window, it makes signage that suits handmade goods.

Material & finish

Each character is laser-cut from dark real wood veneer in our own production in Pößneck. The laser cut gives clean outlines and the typical brown edge, which adds depth to the letters. Veneer is a natural material, so every character shows its own grain and shade. Each piece is unique – this is not a flaw. The surface is untreated, so you can oil, paint or cover it as you like.

Dimensions & technical details

How to use the veneer letters

• In the nursery: your child's name above the bed or on the bedroom door. The room instantly gets something personal that grows with your child.
• On the front door: the digits of your house number glued flat onto the door or a sign. Easy to read, and made of real wood instead of vinyl.
• At a wedding or family celebration: table numbers and a year in wood. Your guests find their seats, and the decoration matches the rest of the table.
• In a café or bakery: lettering in the shop window or on the counter. Your goods look lovingly presented, without you having to redecorate every day.
• For crafts and making: stick letters onto boxes, albums or gifts. Simple things become personal one-offs.

Good to know about the College Block font

The College Block font – sometimes also searched for as Collage Block – is familiar from the shirts and sweatshirts of American universities. It has bold, clearly outlined block letters that are easy to read from a distance. That is why it works so well for names, house numbers, years and signage that should stand out without looking playful.

Care & durability

There is not much to do. An occasional dry dusting is enough. The veneer is untreated, so you can oil or paint it if needed. This protects the colour and surface the way you like. Keep the thin natural material away from constant moisture. Then your lettering will stay as you put it up for a long time.

Options & what's included

• Heights available: 5 cm, 10 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm
• Available as capital letters, numbers and special characters
• Contents: 1 character per order – you order exactly the characters your text needs
• Important: for a word or sentence, order all characters in the same size so that they match in scale

Frequently asked questions

Are the letters supplied individually? Yes, each character is a single piece. This lets you put together your lettering or text freely.

Can I paint or oil the letters? Yes, the real wood veneer is untreated and can be covered, painted or oiled.

Where does the brown edge come from? The characters are laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edge, which is part of the letters' character.

Why are the full stop, comma or minus smaller than ordered? Small special characters are made to the same scale as in the font. They are therefore much smaller than the chosen height of the capital letters.

How do I fix the characters? At just 0.6 mm thick, they can be glued flat or drilled – for example on doors, furniture, walls or signs.

Veneer and font are only part of it. What counts is the moment your own lettering hangs on the wall and the room suddenly looks like you. Simply choose your characters and the right size. Our own production in Pößneck takes care of the rest.
