Birch plywood star – light walnut lacquer, 3–50 cm

The Advent wreath is up and the candles are ready. But the window still needs a star. This wooden star in light walnut brings a light brown, wood-coloured star into your home. It is made for your window decorations. Hang it on its own, string it into a garland or use it as table scatter on the dinner table. The birch plywood star brings calm and a natural look to your Christmas season.

What changes for you

• You decorate in your own style, because you choose the width freely from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. From a tiny scatter star to a large window star.
• Your craft project turns out neat, because the laser-cut edges are smooth and precise. No sanding, no splinters.
• Your decorations look warm rather than generic. The satin-matt lacquer in light walnut lets the natural grain of the birch show through.
• You don't need to prime anything. The star is lacquered on both sides and looks the same from either side. Ideal for hanging in the window or on branches.
• You can plan bigger projects without stress. The star is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

Why this wooden star makes a difference every day

A star made of real wood tells a different story from shiny plastic. It feels heavier in your hand. The surface is matt and pleasant to hold. It suits almost any interior, from country style to a modern flat. Every star has its own grain, so your decorations look handmade and personal rather than uniform. And when your guests sit down for Advent coffee, it is often this quiet detail in the window that makes the room feel cosy.

Material & finish

The star is made from 3 mm birch plywood. It is light enough to hang and sturdy enough to use for years. It is laser cut, so the edges are smooth and the shape is precise. We lacquer the boards on both sides in light walnut ourselves, in our own production in Pößneck. The water-based satin-matt lacquer leaves the grain and small knots visible. Wood is a natural material. Shade and texture vary from piece to piece. That makes every star unique – it is not a flaw.

Good to know about the star

The star is one of the oldest symbols of Christmas. It recalls the Star of Bethlehem, which according to the story showed the way to the manger. So the motif suits not only Advent window decorations. It also works for nativity scenes, gift tags and the festive table.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Simply wipe the star with a dry or slightly damp cloth when needed. Avoid constant moisture and harsh cleaners. Then the lacquered surface keeps its warm shade for many years. You can bring the stars out again season after season.
