2024 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 farmer's wives used the primitive sculptures to press into the wet rice cakes to create designs and beautify a simple food.
This piece measures 18" in length – 1 1/2" in width – 3/4" thick. It has been displayed as a decoration for many decades.
A special aspect of this carved stamp press is the very refined design of long ridges/lines that are intersected by tiny flowers.
The wood shows wear appropriate to its 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.
