Wood Cutout Wall Art: How Machine-Cut Wooden Wall Decor Is Made

Wood cutout wall art is a design cut out of a wooden sheet as a real, physical shape. You're not looking at a printed picture of a pattern. The pattern is the object itself: its outline, its openings and its edges. On the wall, it casts its own shadow and shows off the warmth of the wood.

What 2D means for wood cutout wall art

A 2D wood cutout is cut all the way through a flat sheet. Every part of the design has the same thickness, and the detail comes from the outline and the shapes removed from inside it. That's different from carved 3D wood relief art, where the surface is carved to different depths.

How wood cutout wall art is made

  1. Design. The artwork starts as a clean digital drawing. Every line becomes a cutting path, so the design has to be fully connected. Any piece that isn't joined to the rest would simply drop out when cut.
  2. Material. A sheet of solid wood or Lasani is chosen, depending on the option you order.
  3. Precision machine cutting. A computer-controlled machine follows the digital paths exactly. That's what gives a machine-cut piece its crisp, consistent edges and fine inner detail, a level of accuracy that's very hard to match by hand.
  4. Hand polishing. Every piece is sanded smooth and then hand-polished, layer by layer, to a premium finish. The polish brings out the natural shades and grain of the wood, from warm amber to deep reddish brown, and gives the surface a soft, rich sheen.
  5. Made to order. Each piece is cut after you order.

Every piece in our wood cutout collection is precision machine-cut from the selected material, so the design is a real cut shape rather than a print.

Solid wood vs Lasani: which should you choose?

Artofied wood cutouts come in two materials.

  • Solid wood is natural timber. Each sheet has its own grain, so no two pieces look exactly alike.
  • Lasani is the name widely used in Pakistan for engineered wood board, made from processed wood rather than a single piece of timber. It has a smooth, even surface and a consistent thickness, which suits clean geometric cuts and a uniform finish. It's an engineered wood material, not solid timber.

Pick solid wood if natural grain and the character of real timber matter most. Pick Lasani for a smooth, uniform surface at a lower price. The design, the cutting and the hand-polished premium finish are the same for both, so choosing Lasani never means a lesser finish.

Medallions, sunbursts and circular patterns translate beautifully into cut shapes, because the openings create their own play of light and shadow. A few to start with:

You'll find more pattern-led designs in our geometric art and Islamic art collections, and warm finishes in earth tones.

A blank base for your own art

Not every wood piece has to come with a design. The Blank Wood Disc is a plain, machine-cut circle made as a base for artists. People use it for resin art, painting, or as a backdrop to display their own work.

Why choose wood over a print?

  • Real depth and shadow. A cutout stands slightly off the wall, and its shadow shifts as the light changes during the day.
  • A premium, hand-polished finish. The polish deepens the natural colour of the wood and catches the light, so the piece looks rich up close and from across the room.
  • Warmth. Wood brings a natural feel that balances metal, glass and painted walls.
  • A good gift. Wood pieces make thoughtful housewarming gifts and gifts for any occasion.

Caring for wood wall art

Dust it with a soft, dry cloth, or a soft brush for the fine openings. Keep it away from water and long-term damp.

Frequently asked questions

Is wood cutout wall art printed?

No. The design is a real shape, precision machine-cut from wood, so its outline and openings are physical, not printed.

What is Lasani?

Lasani is the name widely used in Pakistan for engineered wood board. It has a smooth, even surface and is an engineered wood material, not solid timber.

What's the difference between 2D and 3D wood wall art?

A 2D cutout is cut through a flat sheet, with the detail in its outline and openings. 3D wood wall art is carved to different depths on a 3D CNC machine, so it has raised relief.

Is the wood polished?

Yes. Every Artofied wood piece is hand-polished to a premium finish that brings out the natural shades and grain of the wood, on both solid wood and Lasani.

What is the Blank Wood Disc for?

It's a plain wooden base for artists, used for resin art, painting or as a display backdrop.

How do I clean it?

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth or brush and keep it away from water.
