This is a wood silhouette of a family milk cow. It is cut from 1/8" Baltic Birch plywood and includes a base of Eastern White pine for easy display. The silhouette measures 5" by 8" including the length of the base. The base is 1 ½” wide and has a slot cut on the top to insert the silhouette for display.
Our silhouettes and wall hangings make an interesting and unique addition to any decor at home or office. They are painted on both sides and the edges with several coats of deep black paint so they can be displayed in any orientation. Display the silhouettes on a desk, shelf, or bookcase. We like to display them on windowsills or the top of the bottom sash of a double-hung window. The natural backlight of the outside highlights them. Many have purchased our silhouettes for wedding cake toppers or reception table decorations. You can also use them as a wall decoration by not using the base and with a small hanger or adhesive mount them on the wall. They make welcomed unique gifts for those on your shopping list and with our large variety of designs I am sure we have a silhouette that anyone can appreciate.
A word about how we make these silhouettes: they are hand-cut on a scroll saw, sanded, and then hand-painted. No automatic cutting machines are used, so we classify our silhouettes as handmade. If this interests you please take the extra time to review our almost 400 different designs.
To save on shipping costs and to allow you to use the silhouette alone as a wall or furniture
decoration, the base and the silhouette are shipped unattached. To permanently attach the base to the silhouette just put a dab of household or common wood glue in the base slot and carefully insert the silhouette.
We typically ship within one business day after receipt of your payment. Our 1/8" silhouettes are shipped first class USPS mail in a padded envelope. It is our experience that for our packages USPS first class is just as fast as USPS priority.
