Why this wooden chimpanzee makes a difference every day

A clear animal shape instantly sets the theme and mood in a room. That works on a birthday table, on a nursery wall or in a shop display. Instead of searching for matching decorations, you have a basic shape you decide on yourself. Leave it natural and calm, or paint it in bright, playful colours. The result is decoration that really suits you – not something off the shelf.

Material & finish

The chimpanzee is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. It has the typical fine brown edge, which frames the silhouette and defines its outline. The edges are smooth and the finish is clean. So the motif feels pleasant in your hand and is easy to work with. Every cutout is made in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. Wood is a purely natural material. Some pieces are lighter, some darker. Small knots and variations in the grain are part of it. That makes every piece one of a kind.

How to use the wooden chimpanzee

Good to know about plywood

Plywood consists of several layers of wood glued crosswise. This makes it more stable than a plain board of the same thickness. For you, this means the cutout keeps its shape when you paint it, glue things on or hang it up. That makes it especially well suited as a base shape for decoration and craft projects.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. As the wood is untreated, it's best to keep it away from constant moisture. A dry cloth is enough for dusting. If you want to make it more durable, you can varnish or oil it. That way your motif will look good for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the chimpanzee or glue things onto it? Yes. The plywood is untreated and takes paint, glue and oil well. You can varnish it, glue things on, paint it or oil it.

How tall is the motif at my chosen width? As a guide: at a width of 10 cm, the height is 7.5 cm. Other sizes follow the same ratio.

Why does the cutout have a brown edge? The chimpanzee is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edge. It is part of the process and emphasises the outline.

Does every piece look the same? The shape does, the wood not quite. As a natural material, it varies in shade and may show small knots or slight differences in the grain. This is not a defect. It makes every piece unique.

Is the wood already varnished or stained? No, the cutout comes to you in its natural state. The design is entirely up to you.

This wooden cutout can become the monkey a child has painted and holds up proudly. Or it becomes decoration that looks exactly as you pictured it. Simply choose your size and quantity and get started.
