Why this wooden car makes a difference in everyday life

A printed motif can easily look flat. A car made of real wood feels more substantial on your card, gift table or children's party decorations. Depending on the light, the grain and small knots show through the green stain. This sets the car apart from a flat paper or card motif. Your guests are more likely to pick it up. And your lovingly made gift is remembered.

Material & finish

The car is laser-cut from 3 mm poplar plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge that frames the silhouette. The front has a good-quality green stain. Depending on the light, the wood grain still shows through. The back stays natural and can be painted or covered. Wood is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. That makes every car one of a kind. It is made in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the car motif

Few motifs stand for new beginnings and independence like the car. That is why it traditionally goes with driving tests, first cars and travel gifts. A small wooden car on a card or gift says it without words: a new chapter is starting.

Care & durability

There is not much to do. If needed, simply wipe it with a dry cloth. The back is untreated, so the car lasts longest if you keep it away from constant moisture. That way the green surface stays looking good for a long time.
