Why this wooden nightingale makes a difference every day

A ready-cut motif takes care of the hardest part. It leaves you the best part: the designing. Maybe you are at the kitchen table with children. Maybe you are decorating quietly on your own. Either way, the silhouette gives your project a recognisable shape right away. In the end, something you really made yourself hangs in the window or sits on the table. It looks natural and calm and suits any spring or nature decoration.

Material & finish

The nightingale is made of 3 mm plywood and is laser-cut. That is why it has the typical fine brown edge and smooth edges that do not splinter. The wood is untreated, not varnished or stained. It takes paint, glue and oil reliably. Wood is a purely natural material, so every piece turns out a little different. Shades vary, each has its own grain, and some have small knots. This is not a defect. It makes every nightingale one of a kind.

Good to know about the nightingale

For centuries the nightingale has stood for song and the start of spring. In poems and songs it announces the warm season. That is exactly why its silhouette suits spring decorations, window pictures and anything meant to bring nature indoors.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Keep the untreated nightingale dry and away from constant moisture. This keeps the wood stable and looking good for a long time. If you paint, oil or varnish it, you protect the surface even more and give it your own look.

Frequently asked questions

Is the wood treated? No, the nightingale is untreated, not varnished or stained. You can paint it, stick things on it, coat it or oil it straight away.

How tall is the figure at a given width? The height depends on the width. At 10 cm wide, the height is 8 cm. Other sizes scale accordingly.

Do all nightingales look the same? The shape is always identical, but the wood is not. As a natural material, it varies in shade. It may show small irregularities in the grain or small knots. Every piece is one of a kind.

What is the brown edge along the sides? This is the typical laser edge created during cutting. It gives smooth edges and is part of the product's character.
