Wooden puzzle piece – dark green wood cutout, 3–50 cm

The wedding is getting closer, and you're still looking for a guest book idea that does more than a sheet of paper. A wooden puzzle piece on which every guest leaves their name and a wish. In the end, everything fits together into one big whole. This dark green puzzle piece made of 3mm birch plywood is made for moments like these. It's a wood cutout that turns an idea into something lasting.

What changes for you

• You can start crafting straight away, with no sanding or painting needed. Every puzzle piece reaches you already painted in colour on both sides.
• Your project looks finished from both sides. Thanks to the paint on both sides, there's no "back" you need to hide.
• You get exactly the size your project needs. Choose from 3 to 50cm in 1cm steps.
• Your decorations look natural rather than generic. The satin-matt lacquer leaves the grain and small knots in the wood visible, so every piece is one of a kind.
• You can plan bigger projects without reordering. With sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces, you have the right quantity to hand straight away.

Why this puzzle piece makes a difference every day

Whether as a guest favour, name tag or wall decoration in a child's room: a puzzle piece always tells a small story of belonging together. The dark green looks calm and rich. It goes well with wood, white and warm earth tones. Instead of gathering bits together, you hold a finished, neatly made piece in your hand. So you can focus fully on your idea.

Material & finish

The puzzle piece is laser-cut from 3mm birch plywood. This gives smooth edges and accurate shapes that feel pleasant and fit together exactly. At Bütic, we paint the raw boards in colour on both sides ourselves, in our own production in Pößneck. The final clear, satin-matt water-based lacquer lets the wood grain show through. Small knots and differences in shade are not a flaw. They are simply part of a natural material: every puzzle piece is one of a kind.

Good to know about puzzles

The first puzzles in history were made of wood. In 18th-century London, the map seller John Spilsbury sawed up maps mounted on wooden boards to teach children geography. So a wooden puzzle piece goes back to the origin of this idea. To this day, few symbols stand for togetherness as clearly. That's exactly why it's such a popular choice for weddings, farewells and group projects.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Simply wipe the puzzle piece with a dry or slightly damp cloth when needed. Avoid constant moisture and harsh cleaning products. That way, the colour and satin-matt surface will look good for a long time.
