Description: Offering a very beautiful, antique, hand carved wood mold stamp press slab from Korea. This is a rice cake or cookie press that was hand carved by a Korean farmer over 100 years ago. This used to be a traditional craft in Korea during winters when the cold prevented farmers from working outside. The farmers wives used the primitive sculptures to press into the wet rice cakes to create designs and beautify a simple food. This piece measures 19" in length - is 1 3/4" in width - 1 1/2" thick. It has been displayed as a decoration for many decades. A special aspect of this carved stamp press is that the farmer carved in three rice cake molds on the back of the wood slab. A fish and two flowers. The wood shows wear appropriate to it's age with small gouges, scratches and cracks. I have several antique Korean cookie presses similar to this one but each piece is unique because each was hand made by a different person. FREE DOMESTIC SHIPPING!
