Rhineland-Palatinate wooden cutout, poplar plywood, 5–50 cm

Your friend from Mainz has a birthday coming up. Or there's a school project on the German states. Or you're looking for a home-region design for the hallway wall. With this wooden cutout in the shape of Rhineland-Palatinate, you hold the outline of your state in your hands. It's ready for your next craft idea. The untreated poplar plywood takes paint, glue and oil easily. So the blank quickly becomes your own personal piece of home.

What changes for you

• You can start painting, gluing or writing on it straight away – because the wood is untreated and left natural.
• Your design is recognisable at a glance – thanks to the cleanly lasered state outline with its typical brown edge.
• You get exactly the size your project needs. The height can be chosen from 5 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can plan bigger activities such as school projects or guest favours without stress. The cutout is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• It's pleasant to work with and needs no finishing – the smooth, lasered edges don't need sanding.

Why this wooden cutout makes a difference every day

A wooden outline of a state says it without a single word: this is about home. Use it as a gift with a regional link, as decoration on a shelf or as the base for a joint craft project. The Rhineland-Palatinate silhouette creates a personal connection straight away. And because you decide on the size and design yourself, you end up with something truly one of a kind.

Material & finish

The cutout is made from 3 mm poplar plywood and lasered in our own production in Pößneck. That's where the smooth edges come from. Their characteristic brown edge gives the design a fine border. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor stained. So you can glue, paint or oil it as you like. As a purely natural material, every piece is unique. Differences in shade, fine structures in the grain or small knots are not defects. They are part of the wood's character.

• In wedding or table decorations with a regional link: a small design at every place setting gives your guests something to talk about.

Good to know about Rhineland-Palatinate

Rhineland-Palatinate is Germany's number one wine state. Around two thirds of German wine comes from here, from regions such as Mosel, Rheinhessen and Pfalz. That makes the state silhouette especially suitable for wine festivals, gift hampers with regional specialities or as decoration on the wine rack.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Keep the cutout dry and avoid constant moisture, as the wood is untreated. Painting or oiling the surface also makes it more resistant. That way your design stays looking good for a long time.
