Wooden mastiff for crafting – English Mastiff, 3–50 cm

A birthday is coming up. Your best friend and her English Mastiff have been inseparable for years. So the present should be something personal. This wooden mastiff is a silhouette for crafting and painting that shows exactly that bond. Use it as a gift tag, a door sign or a small token, made for fans of the breed. You choose the size and reach for a brush or glue. And a plain wooden cutout becomes your own little project.

What changes for you

• You can put your idea into practice straight away. The plywood is untreated, so you can glue, paint, varnish or oil it directly.
• Your motif is instantly recognisable, with no finishing needed. That's thanks to the laser-cut silhouette with its clear outline and smooth edges.
• You'll find the right size for every project, from gift tag to door sign. The width can be chosen from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can craft with children without worry. The edges are laser-cut smooth, with no splinters.
• You can plan bigger projects without reordering. Sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 are available.

Why this wooden mastiff makes a difference day to day

Ready-made decorations are everywhere. But a motif you've designed yourself tells a story. On a present, on a door or as a keepsake: the clear dog silhouette looks calm and precise. And everyone can see straight away who it's meant to be. That's how a small craft idea becomes something that lasts.

Material & finish

The silhouette is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives it the typical brown edge. It frames the motif and outlines it, with no extra work from you. The surface is left natural, not varnished or glazed. It takes paint, glue and oil reliably. Wood is a purely natural material. Brightness, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. This isn't a flaw. It's what makes every cutout one of a kind. The mastiff is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia, and is carefully finished.

How to use the wooden mastiff

• For a dog lover's birthday: paint the cutout to look like their four-legged friend and tie it to the present. You'll get the first smile before the paper is even off.
• Crafting with children: each child designs their own dog. At the end, a whole colourful dog parade hangs in the children's room.
• Crafting for money gifts: glue the mastiff onto the card or tie it to the envelope. Suddenly the envelope looks thoughtful rather than awkward.
• On the front door or a room door: write a name on it and use it as a door sign. Right from the hallway, the silhouette shows who lives here – and who keeps watch.
• At the dog groomer's, the dog training school or the pet shop: with a set of 25, 50 or 100, you can make customer gifts or counter decorations in a matching look. They're quick to prepare and ready to use.

Good to know about the mastiff

The Mastiff, also called the English Mastiff, is one of the oldest British dog breeds. Despite its imposing size, it's known as a calm, affectionate companion. That's why its silhouette is a popular motif for personal gifts for owners and breeders, from tags to club decorations.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Keep the untreated cutout dry and away from constant moisture. Then it will keep its natural look for a long time. If you paint or oil it, you give the surface extra protection. The wood grain also shows more clearly.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint or decorate the wooden mastiff? Yes. The plywood is untreated and can be varnished, painted, glued or oiled. Paint and glue stick directly to the surface.

Why does the edge have a brown rim? The cutout is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown rim that neatly frames the motif. The edges are smooth and free of splinters.

How tall is the figure at my chosen width? The height increases in proportion: at 10 cm wide, the silhouette is 8 cm tall.

Do all cutouts look the same? Wood is a natural material. Shade and grain vary, and small knots are normal. That makes every piece one of a kind.

What matters isn't the wooden cutout itself. It's the moment someone unwraps their present and recognises their dog in it. Just choose your size, singly or in a set, and start creating.
