Dark red heart – wooden heart in birch plywood, 3–50 cm

The invitations are written and the table is almost laid. Now all that's missing is the dark red wooden heart to complete the decoration. A dark red wooden heart sits beside each plate. It hangs on the gift ribbon or lies as table scatter between the candles. Suddenly the table looks lovingly put together, as if made for your occasion. The birch plywood cutout comes to you in exactly the size you need: from 3 to 50 cm.

What changes for you

• Your table looks festive without lots of decorating. A few small hearts as table scatter are enough. The deep red on light table linen instantly brings warmth to the room.
• You get exactly the size that suits your idea. Choose from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps, single or in a set.
• You can start crafting, writing or sticking straight away. The laser-cut edges are smooth and accurate, so there's no need for sanding or trimming.
• Your DIY project looks good from both sides. Every heart is lacquered on both sides, so it also works as a hanging decoration in the window or on a branch.
• You decorate with something truly one of a kind. The visible grain of the birch wood makes each heart a little different from the next.

Why this wooden heart makes a difference every day

A heart says more than words – for a wedding, on Valentine's Day or for Mother's Day. Instead of shiny plastic decorations, this is birch plywood on your table. Its matt, slightly rough surface feels firm and easy to grip. Use it as a place card with a name, as a tag on a gift or in a large size on the wall. The dark red is strong enough to stand out. It won't overpower the rest of your decoration.

Material & finish

Every heart is made in our own production in Pößneck. We lacquer the raw boards of 3 mm birch plywood in colour on both sides ourselves. They are then laser cut. This gives smooth edges and accurate, cleanly finished shapes. The final clear, satin-matt water-based lacquer lets the grain and small knots show through. Wood is a purely natural material. Brightness and texture vary from piece to piece. This is not a flaw – it is exactly what makes every heart one of a kind.

How to use your wooden heart

• For a wedding: scatter small hearts across the table as table scatter. The tables look festive as soon as your guests walk in.
• On Valentine's Day or for Mother's Day: write a personal message on a heart and place it on the breakfast plate. It's a greeting that lasts long after the flowers have faded.
• When crafting with children or for a DIY project: decorate the hearts, thread them or join them into a garland. The smooth edges feel comfortable in your hand.
• In a café or at the weekly market: use hearts as price tags or signs on the counter. They are quick to write on and can be used again and again. They also suit a natural display of your goods.
• As shop window and in-store decoration: large hearts up to 50 cm draw attention to promotional displays around Valentine's Day and Mother's Day. Hang them up or lean them against something – they're in place within minutes.

Good to know about the dark red heart

You may be wondering: what does a dark red heart actually mean? Bright red stands for fresh, new love. Dark red is traditionally seen as the colour of deep, lasting love and connection. That's why this heart is especially suited to weddings and anniversaries – wherever it's about more than a fleeting moment.

Frequently asked questions

Can I write on the hearts or stick things to them? Yes. You can write on the satin-matt lacquered surface and stick things to it, for example for place cards, tags or craft projects.

Do all the hearts look exactly the same? No. Birch wood is a natural material. The grain, brightness and small knots vary slightly. Every heart is one of a kind.

How do I choose the right size? Height and width are the same: a heart 10 cm high is also 10 cm wide. You can choose any size from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.

Are the hearts lacquered on both sides? Yes. Both sides are lacquered in colour and sealed with a clear, satin-matt water-based lacquer. This makes them ideal for hanging decorations that can be seen from every side.

What matters is the moment when someone finds the little dark red heart at their place. They realise that someone has put thought into this. Just choose your size – single or in a set.
