Handball crafts – plywood handball player, 5–50 cm

The end-of-season party is coming up. The table in the clubhouse is laid. What's missing is the little touch that turns the evening into a memory. This laser-cut handball player silhouette in plywood makes handball crafts easy. Paint it, decorate it, stand it up or hang it – just right for your club party. Use it as table decoration, a gift tag or on the pinboard. The motif puts your favourite sport on show.

What changes for you

• You design the motif exactly the way you want. The wood is untreated, so paints, glue and oils stick directly to the surface.
• Your decoration always suits the occasion, from small table scatter to large wall decoration. You choose the height freely from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can start straight away without any finishing work. The laser cut leaves smooth edges. The typical brown edge outlines the silhouette on its own.
• You can kit out the whole team or the club party without ordering several times. Sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces are available.
• You're holding a piece of honest craftsmanship. It's made in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Why this handball player silhouette makes a difference

A figure you have designed yourself says more than mass-produced goods. It shows that you have put some thought into it. On the table at the club party, on a gift for the coach or on the door of the youth room, the light wood with its even grain fits in anywhere. And because you decide the size and design yourself, nothing looks random.

Material & finish

The silhouette is made from 3 mm plywood and is laser-cut. That is why it has smooth edges and the typical brown edge that traces the outline of the motif. The wood is left natural, neither varnished nor glazed. You can start right away with a brush, pens or glue. As a natural material, every piece has its own grain, different shades and sometimes small knots. This is not a flaw. It makes every piece unique.

Good to know about handball

Handball in its current form emerged in the German-speaking world in the early 20th century. In Germany it is still one of the big club sports today. That is exactly why the motif works so well for everything that makes up club life: tournaments, anniversaries, awards and celebrations where the team takes centre stage.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Store the silhouette in a dry place and avoid constant moisture. Then the untreated wood will keep its natural look for a long time. If you want to protect the motif permanently, you can paint or oil it – whatever you prefer.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the silhouette? Yes. The plywood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. Paints, glue and oils stick directly to the surface.

Why does the figure have a brown edge? The edge is created during laser cutting. It is part of the typical look and gives the silhouette a clear outline.

Do all figures look the same? The shape is identical, the wood is not. As a natural material, every piece has its own grain, different shades and occasionally small knots.

Are there quantities for clubs or events? Yes. Besides single pieces, you can order sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces – all in the height you want.

This is about more than a piece of plywood. It's about the moment the team sits at the laid table. Everyone finds a small figure at their place that someone has designed with love. Just choose the size and quantity. You do the rest with a brush and your imagination.
