Wooden clipboard, standard shape – chestnut writing board

Your pen is tucked behind your ear, your sheet of paper is flapping in the wind, and the stocktaking list just won't stay still. With a wooden clipboard, you always have a firm surface to write on – in the warehouse, at your market stall or at the lectern. In its warm chestnut shade, it feels made for your working day: calm, easy to grip and reliable.

What changes for you

• You can write neatly anywhere, without a wobbly surface – because the 3 mm birch plywood keeps its shape and sits steadily in your hand.
• Your sheets stay firmly in place, even on the move or outdoors – thanks to the strong metal clip or wire clip.
• You'll find exactly the size that suits your paperwork – from DIN A3 to A6, each in portrait or landscape.
• Your clipboard still looks well cared for after plenty of use – because the surface is sealed with two coats of hard-wearing water-based clear lacquer.
• You choose the clip colour to suit your interior or your style. Eight shades are available, from silver and copper to rose gold.

Why this clipboard makes a difference every day

A clipboard made of real wood feels different from a plastic one. It is warmer and sturdier, with a weight you can feel in your hand. You might tick off checklists, take notes or hand guests the menu. The brown chestnut-coloured writing board brings a natural calm to your routines. Instead of loose sheets, you have everything neatly in one place. And what you hold in your hand also looks well cared for in front of customers and guests.

Material & finish

The clipboard is made from 3 mm birch plywood. It is very stable and robust, yet pleasantly light. The rounded corners sit comfortably in your hand. The surface is sealed twice with a durable water-based clear varnish. This makes it hard-wearing in everyday use. Wood is a purely natural material. Variations in lightness, small knots and fine structures in the grain are part of it. They make every piece unique. The grain can run horizontally or vertically. If you send us a short message, we are happy to agree on this with you. Every board is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

How to use the clipboard

• In the office or home office: clip in your to-do list, work through it, tick it off – and your desk stays free of loose notes.
• In cafés and restaurants: hand out the menu on the chestnut-coloured wooden board. Your guests hold a sturdy board with a smooth surface. The menu stays flat and tidy.
• At the market stall or in the warehouse: keep a firm grip on stocktaking and order lists, even when it's draughty – you can write standing up without looking for a surface.
• As a script holder on stage or in front of the camera: presenter cards, speech notes or screenplay held securely together – the sturdy wood sits steadily in your hand, so nothing slips at the crucial moment.
• At home: shopping list, weekly planner or recipe kept handy in one fixed place – and the whole family knows where everything is.

Good to know about the clipboard

Birch plywood is made of several veneer layers glued crosswise – which makes it remarkably rigid even when thin. That's exactly why this clipboard needs only 3 mm: it stays light to carry and still gives you a firm writing surface for neat writing, even standing up.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: thanks to the clear lacquer seal, simply wipe the board with a slightly damp cloth when needed. Avoid prolonged wetness and harsh cleaning products – that way the surface keeps its warm chestnut shade for a long time.

Frequently asked questions

Is the clipboard made of chestnut wood? No – “chestnut” refers to the warm brown colour. The board is made from 3 mm birch plywood.

Which paper sizes fit the clipboard? You can choose your board to suit DIN A3, A4, A5 or A6 – each in portrait or landscape.

Can I choose the direction of the grain? Yes, by arrangement. By default, the grain may run horizontally or vertically, as we optimise our cutouts to avoid waste. Just send us a quick message.

Is there a version with a pen holder? Yes, some clip versions are optionally available with a pen holder – so your pen is always to hand.

Why does my board look slightly different from the photo? Wood is a natural material: lightness, grain and small knots vary from board to board. That's exactly what makes every piece unique.

In the end, it's not about a board with a clip. It's about the moment you hold your list, notes or script steadily in your hand – and can focus fully on what matters right now. Simply choose your format and your favourite clip, and we'll make the rest for you.
