Thuringia wooden cutout – state outline in wood, 5–50 cm

A gift with a link to home, a hand-made wooden map or a small keepsake of where you come from: sometimes you are missing just the one shape that turns an idea into something of your own. This Thuringia cutout in 3 mm poplar plywood is made for exactly that. It is the outline of the federal state in a small format, ready to paint, decorate and embellish. You decide what it becomes. The shape is already right.

What changes for you

• You can get started straight away instead of sawing for ages – because the outline of Thuringia is already cleanly laser-cut, with smooth edges.
• Your craft project gets exactly the right size – thanks to a freely selectable width from 5 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• You can design it however you like – because the wood is untreated and can be painted, decorated, coated or oiled.
• You can kit out larger projects without extra effort – with sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100 pieces.
• Your map of Germany with its federal states fits together – because every state outline is made true to size and the pieces match each other.

Why this wooden cutout makes a difference every day

Shop-bought decorations are everywhere. A piece you have designed yourself with a regional motif says something about you or the person you give it to. With the ready-made outline, you focus on designing rather than cutting. The result looks well thought out from the very start. A piece of wood becomes a greeting to home, a place marker or a wall piece with a regional link.

Material & finish

The cutout is made from 3 mm poplar plywood. It is light, keeps its shape and feels pleasant in the hand. The laser cut gives smooth edges. It also leaves the typical brown edge, which gives the motif a fine outline. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. Paints, glues and oils adhere to it particularly well. As with any natural material, the shade and grain vary slightly from piece to piece. Small knots are possible. This makes every cutout one of a kind. It is made in our own production in Pößneck – right in the middle of the state it shows.

• As a gift with a link to home: add a name, a date or a heart on the home town. The cutout becomes a personal keepsake for anyone moving away or arriving.
• In a shop or café: use it to hold price tags or to point out regional products. The Thuringia shape shows at a glance where your goods come from.

Good to know about Thuringia

Thuringia has long been known as “the green heart of Germany” – because of its extensive forests, above all the Thuringian Forest. This makes the outline a good fit as wall decoration in your own home. It also works as a small gift for friends far away who want to show their bond with the region.

Care & durability

There is not much you need to do. Store the cutout somewhere dry and keep it away from constant moisture. The untreated wood will then keep its natural look for a long time. If you want to protect the surface or add colour, you can simply paint, oil or glaze it.

Frequently asked questions

Is the wood already treated? No, the cutout is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. You can paint, decorate, coat or oil it straight away.

Where does the brown edge come from? It is created during laser cutting and is typical of this process. The laser also gives smooth, clean edges.

How tall is the cutout at the width I choose? The height depends on the shape. At a width of 10 cm, it is 8 cm. Larger widths follow the same ratio.

Why don’t all the cutouts look the same? Wood is a natural material. Shade and grain vary, and small knots may occur. This is not a defect. It makes every piece unique.

What really counts is not the piece of plywood. It is the moment someone picks up your finished piece and instantly recognises: this is home. Simply choose your size – single or as a set – and start creating.
