Wooden star cutout – birch plywood, teak lacquered

Advent is here and the table is laid. But one small, warm detail is still missing to bring it all together. A wooden star in teak brings exactly that to your table, windowsill or gift. It's a wooden cutout with visible grain that looks calm rather than loud. Use it as small table scatter or as a large star in the window. It's made for your winter decorations.

What changes for you

• Your table needs hardly any other decoration – the teak brown goes with almost any table linen and season.
• You'll find the right size for every idea. You can choose any width from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can start crafting straight away with no finishing work – because the edges are laser-cut, smooth and accurate.
• Your decorations look good from both sides, for example hanging freely in the window – because every star is lacquered on both sides.
• You have enough material in stock for larger projects – because the stars come singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.

Why this wooden star makes a difference every day

Decorations made from real wood bring a calm to a room that plastic or glitter rarely achieve. The visible grain makes each star a piece of its own. The warm brown fits into natural interiors just as well as a festive table. The result doesn't look forced. It looks lovingly put together.

Material & finish

Each star is laser-cut from 3 mm birch plywood. This gives smooth edges and accurate shapes with no fraying or splintering. At Bütic, we lacquer the boards on both sides in our own production in Pößneck. The clear, satin-matt water-based lacquer deliberately leaves the grain and small knots visible. Wood is a purely natural material. Brightness and texture vary from piece to piece. That makes each star unique – it is not a flaw.

How to use your wooden star

• At your Advent dinner: scatter a few small stars between candles and fir sprigs. The table looks festive before the first course arrives.
• In the window: hang a large star on a ribbon. Even from the street, people can see that things are getting cosy at your place.
• Crafting with children: paint them, stick things on, thread them. Thanks to the smooth laser-cut edges, your DIY project starts without any sandpaper.
• On a gift: tie a small star to the wrapping instead of a bow. Your present will look like more than a quickly wrapped parcel.
• In your business: in the window of a bakery, café or shop, a large star up to 50 cm wide marks the season. The sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces are enough to decorate the whole shop without reordering.

Good to know about the star

The star has been part of Advent and Christmas for centuries. It stands for the Star of Bethlehem, which is said to show the way. That's why it works so reliably as a decorative motif. It ranges from small table scatter on the festive table to a large window star that builds anticipation in December.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Dusting with a dry cloth now and then keeps the satin-matt surface looking good for a long time. Avoid constant moisture. Birch plywood is a natural material. Give it a dry spot and you'll enjoy it for many seasons.
