Why this wooden gecko makes a difference

Small motifs made of real wood noticeably change how a card, a window or a laid table looks. Wood has texture where paper or plastic can quickly look flat. You don't need to put in a lot of design work. Scatter a few geckos and your decoration shows a playful animal motif in real wood. The motif works just as well as a lizard or salamander. So it suits lots of occasions, from a summer party to a reptile-themed birthday.

Material & finish

The gecko is made of 3 mm plywood and is laser-cut. This gives you accurate cutouts with smooth edges. You can use them straight away without sanding. The top has a green glaze. The underside is left natural. Wood is a purely natural material. Brightness, grain and small knots always vary a little. This makes every gecko a one-off and is not a defect. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the wooden gecko

• Crafting with children: each child gets a gecko and paints the natural back. At the end, every child holds their own little work of art.
• On cards and gifts: a gecko stuck on gives an invitation, greetings card or money gift a handmade wooden detail.
• As table scatter: place a few lizards between plates and napkins. Your summer party guests have something to discover before the first drink.
• For window pictures: put several geckos on the window to show a green reptile motif in the room. This works in a child's bedroom as well as in the hallway.
• In your shop: in the shop window, on the counter or at a market stall, you can create a consistent motif in just a few steps. Your display looks lovingly put together straight away.
