Wooden letters to stick on – mahogany veneer, 5–20 cm

Your child's name on the bedroom door. The couple's initials on the wedding invitation. A favourite word above the shelf. Often it's this one word that makes a wall or a gift personal. With these veneer letters in the flowing MT font, you put together your own text letter by letter. They are wooden letters made from dark real wood veneer, just right for your favourite word. You simply stick them on. Your lettering then shows real wood grain and depth that printed vinyl letters can't match.

What changes for you

• You create your very own lettering. You choose every letter individually in upper or lower case and combine them freely.
• Your text looks lively and refined rather than smooth and artificial. That's down to the real grain in the untreated, dark Macore or Sapelli/mahogany veneer.
• You can attach the letters to almost any decorative surface. This is possible thanks to the very thin approx. 0.6 mm thickness, which lets them lie flat when stuck on.
• Your lettering fits your project, not the other way round. Choose anything from a small 5 cm monogram to large wooden letters 20 cm high.
• You get clean outlines right down to the smallest flourish. Every character is laser-cut with great precision.

Why these veneer letters make a difference every day

Lettering in real wood that you've put together yourself noticeably changes how a room or gift feels. It shows that someone designed it with care. The dark veneer brings calm and warmth to the wall, the door or the card. It's subtle enough for every day. And it's special enough that guests take a second look. You choose the size yourself. So a single initial works just as well as a whole family name.

Material & finish

The letters are made from real wood veneer in Macore or Sapelli/mahogany. They are left natural – neither painted nor oiled. This means the fine grain is directly visible. Wood is a natural material, so every letter has its own pattern. Each piece is unique, and that's not a flaw. Bütic laser-cuts and makes every character in its own production in Pößneck. The finish is clean right into the flourishes of the script.

How to use the veneer letters

• On the child's bedroom door: You stick on your child's name letter by letter. The door then marks their very own space.
• When making cards and gifts: A single monogram in dark wood. Even a simple card looks lovingly made.
• In the living room: A favourite word 20 cm high above the shelf. The wall says something about you without a single picture.
• In a café or farm shop: You label shelves, signs or the counter with real wood. Your goods are then framed by the same material that sets your products apart.
• For a wedding: The couple's initials on the guest favours or the seating plan. It's a detail guests like to pick up.

Good to know about veneer

Veneer is a wafer-thin sheet cut from real wood. Furniture makers have used this technique for centuries to use fine woods such as mahogany sparingly and to good effect. These letters carry on this tradition. At only about 0.6 mm thick, they are feather-light and can be stuck on flat. They still show the full grain and colour of real wood.

• Choice of height: 5 cm, 10 cm, 15 cm or 20 cm
• Upper- and lower-case letters freely selectable – each letter is ordered and delivered individually
• Important: For one word, order all letters in the same size, even if it starts with a capital letter – this way upper- and lower-case letters match in scale

Frequently asked questions

Why are the lower-case letters shorter than the size I chose? The chosen height refers to the capital letters. Lower-case letters are made to the same scale, as the font dictates. Only then do the proportions of all characters in a word match.

Can I stick the letters on? Yes, the characters can be glued and used for all kinds of decorations. The low thickness of approx. 0.6 mm makes them easy to attach.

Is the wood treated? No, the veneer is left natural, neither painted nor oiled. The fine grain stays visible. You can finish the surface yourself if you like.

Do all letters look exactly the same? The shape is precisely laser-cut. However, the grain and shades of the real wood vary slightly. As a natural product, every letter is unique.

Veneer thickness and fonts are only the technical side. What counts is the moment your chosen word is up on the door or wall. Someone asks where you had it made. And you answer: I put it together myself. Just choose your letters and the right height.
