Why this wooden flamingo makes a difference in everyday life

A motif made from real wood feels different from shop-bought decorations. It's warmer, more natural and more personal, because you've designed it yourself. Use it as table scatter on a summer table, as a window decoration or as part of a garland. The wading bird adds a light, summery feel to the room without being overbearing. And because you choose the size yourself, it fits exactly where you need it.

Material & finish

The flamingo is laser-cut from 3 mm poplar plywood. This gives it smooth edges with the typical fine brown rim, which adds extra definition to the silhouette. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So it's open to anything: painting, oiling, sticking things on or leaving it natural. As a natural material, every piece shows its own grain, different shades and occasionally small knots. That's not a flaw. It's exactly what makes every cutout one of a kind. The flamingo is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the flamingo

Hardly any motif stands for summer, sunshine and light-heartedness as much as the flamingo. The elegant wading bird with its long neck has been a popular decoration motif for the warm season for years. That's why it suits garden parties, summer festivals and outdoor birthdays. It also works as seasonal decoration in shop windows and shops.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Store the flamingo in a dry place and it will keep its shape and look for a long time. As the wood is untreated, avoid constant moisture. If you want to use it outdoors, a coat of paint or oil protects the surface.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the flamingo or stick things on it? Yes. The wood is untreated. You can paint it, oil it, stick things on it or draw on it. Acrylic paints work just as well as pens or decoupage with napkins.

Why does the edge have a brown rim? The flamingo is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown rim on the cut edges. It's part of the process and emphasises the silhouette.

Does every flamingo look the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, it shows different shades, grain patterns and sometimes small knots. That's exactly what makes every piece unique.

How wide is the flamingo? The width depends on the height you choose. For reference: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 7 cm.

Is the flamingo suitable for outdoor use? The wood is untreated, so it isn't meant for constant moisture. With a protective coat, you can also use it to decorate your garden or balcony.
