Black Easter eggs with hole – wooden eggs for hanging

The Easter branches are on the table and the twigs are already sprouting. Now all that's missing is decoration that doesn't look like colourful mass-produced stuff. These black wooden Easter eggs hang on branches or in the window. Their matt, dark surface stands apart from any colourful decoration. They are made for understated Easter decorating. You hang them up and take a step back. The black of the eggs stands out calmly against light walls and pale wood.

What changes for you

• Your Easter branches get a clean, elegant look instead of a colourful jumble. The eggs are painted black on both sides, so they look just as good from either side.
• You hang each egg up in seconds. Thanks to the ready-made hole with a 3 mm diameter, you only need to thread a ribbon through.
• You'll find the right size for every idea, from a delicate twig hanger to a large decorative egg for a shop window or entrance. You choose any height from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Your decorations still look good years later. Wooden Easter eggs for hanging don't shatter. After Easter, they simply go back in the box.
• You hold real natural material in your hands as you decorate. The water-based paint still lets the grain and knots of the birch plywood show through.

Why these wooden Easter eggs make a difference in everyday life

Black Easter eggs are a calm counterpart to fresh spring branches. They let the green shine instead of competing with it. In the window, on the branches or on the laid Easter table, you get a tidy, modern look. You don't have to do much arranging. And because the wood grain stays visible under the paint, the decoration looks natural rather than artificial.

Material & finish

Each egg is laser-cut from 3 mm birch plywood in our own production in Pößneck. The result is smooth edges and accurate shapes that don't snag or splinter. The water-based coloured paint covers both sides in black. You can still see the grain and small knots. Wood is a purely natural material. Every piece varies a little in texture and shade. That makes each egg one of a kind, not a flaw.

How to use the Easter eggs

• In the window: a few eggs on fine thread at different lengths. They look evenly black from outside and inside, because both sides are painted.
• On the Easter table: an egg with a name ribbon at each place. Your guests find their seat and take a small keepsake home.
• For crafting: a ready-painted wooden cutout as a base for wreaths, garlands or labelled tags. No sawing or sanding needed.
• In shops, cafés or at the bakery counter: large eggs up to 50 cm in the shop window or above the counter. Your Easter decoration is up in a few minutes and can be reused every year.

Good to know about the Easter egg

For centuries, the egg has been a symbol of fertility and new beginnings. That's why it is firmly part of Easter traditions, from painted eggs to decorated branches. A wooden Easter egg picks up this tradition but stays in use for many years. You bring it out again every spring instead of buying new.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. After Easter, wipe them dry and store them protected. Then the eggs keep their colour and shape for years. Avoid constant moisture. Wood is a natural material and moves when it gets wet.

Frequently asked questions

Are the Easter eggs painted on both sides? Yes, both sides are painted black. Hanging freely, the eggs look just as good from every side.

How do I hang the eggs? Each egg has a ready-made hole with a 3 mm diameter. You can thread yarn, ribbon or wire through it.

How wide is an egg in relation to its height? For reference: at a height of 10 cm, the width is 7.5 cm. The same ratio applies to all sizes.

Does every egg look exactly the same? The shape is laser-cut and accurate, but wood is a natural material. Grain and small knots show through the paint and make every piece one of a kind.

Can I use the eggs again? Yes. Stored dry, the wooden eggs are ready for use for many Easters.

Painted birch plywood is only the material. What you'll remember is looking at your finished Easter branches and thinking: that's exactly how it should look. Just choose your size and quantity. The eggs on the branches will do the rest.
