Lower Saxony wood cutout – poplar plywood, 5–50 cm

A gift with a link to home, a sign for your market stall or a craft idea with the kids – sometimes you're missing just the one shape that brings it all together. This wooden cutout shows the German state of Lower Saxony as a clearly recognisable silhouette in untreated poplar plywood. It's made for your next home-town project. You paint it, decorate it or write on it, and a simple state outline becomes a piece that's all yours.

What changes for you

• Your shape is recognisable at first glance. The state outline is cleanly laser-cut with smooth edges and the typical brown laser edge.
• You'll find the right size for every idea, from a small tag to a wall sign. The width can be chosen from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Plan bigger projects without reordering. Available individually or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• What you are holding is a piece of honest craftsmanship. It was made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Why this wooden cutout makes a difference every day

An outline of Lower Saxony says it without many words: this is where I belong. Use it as decoration in the hallway, as a tag on a gift or as a sign in your shop. The silhouette creates an instant personal link that shop-bought standard decorations rarely have. And because you decide on the design yourself, you end up with something that suits you or your occasion exactly.

Material & finish

The 3 mm poplar plywood is light and keeps its shape. It's also pleasant to work with. The outline is laser-cut. This gives smooth edges without splinters and the typical brown edge, which adds extra depth to the outline. The wood is left untreated, so it's neither varnished nor stained. You can paint, oil or decorate it however you like. As a purely natural material, every piece shows its own grain, different shades and occasionally small knots. This isn't a flaw – it's exactly what makes each piece one of a kind.

How to use the Lower Saxony outline

• For a birthday or a farewell: as a gift tag with writing on it, it turns a simple parcel into a small declaration of love for home.
• Crafting with children: everyone designs their own Lower Saxony. Along the way, they learn the shape of the state.
• In a farm shop or at the weekly market: as a sign saying “Aus der Region”, the outline shows your customers at a glance where the produce comes from.
• In a café or bakery: use several small outlines from the set as matching counter decoration. They're quick to set up and have a clear regional link.

You can mark it or write it on the cutout.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Indoors, an occasional dusting is enough. As the plywood is untreated, protect it from constant moisture. Or paint or oil it before use, and the surface will stay looking good for a long time.
