This puzzle piece is made for your next craft session.

• You get exactly the size your project needs. The puzzle piece can be ordered individually from 5 x 5 cm to 50 x 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• The wine-red stain gives your decoration a rich colour. Depending on the light, the wood grain still shows through.

• No cutting or sanding needed. Laser-cut, smooth edges and precise sizing mean the piece is ready to use straight away.

Why this wooden puzzle piece makes a difference every day

A puzzle piece speaks of togetherness without words. It stands for the piece that was still missing. That's why it turns a simple craft into something personal. It could be a money gift that feels thoughtful, a wall decoration with a message or a guest favour people remember. And because it's real wood, it feels different from printed card when you work with it. It's warm, easy to grip and durable.

Material & finish

The puzzle piece is made of 3 mm plywood. It is laser-cut in our own production in Pößneck, Thuringia. That's where the typical brown edge comes from. It gives every shape a fine, crafted outline. The front has a wine-red stain in line with DIN EN 71-3. The back is left natural. Wood is a purely natural material. Its shade varies, and small knots or irregularities in the grain are part of it. This makes every piece one of a kind. It's not a flaw, but part of the wood's character.

Good to know about puzzles

The jigsaw puzzle was invented in London in the 18th century. The mapmaker John Spilsbury cut wooden maps into pieces so children could learn geography through play. So a wooden puzzle piece goes back to where the idea began. To this day, it is a symbol that only all the pieces together make a whole. That's why it works well for wedding gifts, new babies, farewells to colleagues or as a group project.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Simply wipe it with a dry cloth when needed. As the back is untreated, keep the puzzle piece away from water and constant damp. That way, its shape and colour will last.
