Material & finish

The moons are made in our own production in Pößneck from solid board in bookbinding quality. This material is known for its strength. It also takes paint, glue and varnish well. The surface is smooth. The laser-cut edges are brown and cleanly finished. Each piece sits neatly in your hand and can be decorated straight away without any preparation.

The board warps far less than thin card. It also stands up to heavy layers of paint. Ideal for decorations that should last longer than one evening.
