Material & finish

Solid board in bookbinding quality is the same material used for sturdy book covers. That's why the puzzle piece feels firm and keeps its shape in your hand. The surface is smooth and untreated. You can paint it, varnish it, stick things on it or decorate it with pens. Laser cutting gives precise outlines. The brown edges this creates are typical of the material. They give every piece a natural, handcrafted look. Every puzzle piece is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.
