Why this wooden dragonfly makes a difference every day

Decoration doesn't have to be elaborate to make a difference. A single dragonfly in the window makes a room feel lighter. A few small ones as table scatter turn a simple coffee table into a lovingly laid one. Because the motif is made of real wood, it looks calm and natural. That's quite different from shiny plastic decorations.

Material & finish

The dragonfly is made of 3 mm poplar plywood and is laser-cut. That's why it has the typical, lightly browned edge that gives each motif its outline. The front has a lavender glaze. Depending on the light, the wood grain and small knots show through. That makes every piece one of a kind. The back is left natural and untreated, so you can paint it or stick things on as you like. Wood is a natural material. Variations in shade, texture and small knots are part of it and are not a defect.

Good to know about the dragonfly

The dragonfly has long been seen as a messenger of spring and summer. In many cultures it stands for lightness and change. In Japan it is even a symbol of good luck. So the motif suits not only seasonal decoration but also greetings cards and gifts for new beginnings of all kinds.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do: simply dust it dry when needed. As the back is natural and untreated, it's best to store the dragonfly in a dry place and avoid constant moisture. That way the lavender surface stays looking good for a long time.
