A Business Card Made From Actual Wood
Each card is a 65-point sheet of beech or cherry. Your logo and text are burned, etched or pressed into the grain, so the mark is part of the card, where ink on cardstock sits on top. Hand one across a table and it has weight and a grain you can feel. Browse every style on business cards printing.
There are three quantities, 250, 500 and 1,000. The step from 500 to 1,000 adds $252.62 for twice the cards.
What Is a Wood Business Card
It is a card cut from a real sheet of wood rather than paper or plastic, chosen when a standard card would blend in: an architect, a winery, a woodworker handing out a sample of the trade. For a lighter natural stock, the Kraft Business Cards print on recycled brown kraft, and the Cotton Business Cards bring a soft cotton feel.
What Wood and Finish Should You Choose
Beech keeps type crisp against its light grain, while cherry runs deeper for a richer look. Then decide how the design meets the wood, and whether to paint the edges a solid color, gild them in foil, or run a laser die cut that carves a design into the top or bottom layer or cuts the card to your own shape. The panel below lists the stock, surface and edge choices. If a colored or foil edge is the whole look, the Edge Painted Business Cards and Edge Gilded Business Cards carry it on paper stocks.
Laser Engraving Against Etching and Foil
Laser engraving cuts deepest, so the grain inside the mark is burned away and the shape reads as a solid block. It is sharpest against pale beech and sits quieter on cherry. Laser etching only skims the top, so the grain still runs through the mark, which suits a background pattern or a watermark behind type. Foil stamping adds color where the other two take wood away, so it looks the same on either wood and still reads in low light.

Wally trades paper for real wood
Why a 65-point beech or cherry card gets kept on a desk, not in a drawer.
A wood business card is a real sheet of beech or cherry, from $470.11 for 250, with your design laser engraved, etched, or foil stamped straight into the grain. Add edge painting, edge gilding, or a custom die cut. Wally helps you pick the wood and the finish, then makes each one to order.
How Fast Can You Get Wood Business Cards
Real wood takes real handling, so wood cards run on a 15 business day schedule with no rush tier. Plan around an event date with that in mind, and add shipping time on top.

Wood Business Cards: Frequently Asked Questions
Will every card look the same?
No two are identical. The grain is natural, so the lines behind your logo shift from card to card.
What artwork works best on wood?
Bold shapes and clean type. Fine hairlines and very small text are the first things to blur when a laser burns or a foil die presses into grain, so simplify the logo and keep type at a readable size.
Can the edges be finished in a color?
Yes, as an option. Edge painting puts a solid color along the cut edge, and edge gilding lays foil there instead. On a 65-point card the edge is thick enough for either to show from the side.
