Antique Treen Butter Stamp Thistle Carved Folk Art
A beautifully hand carved antique treen butter stamp featuring a deeply carved thistle design framed within a decorative border. The carving is crisp and detailed, with strong relief giving excellent visual depth. This traditional dairy tool would have been used to decorate handmade butter, and today makes a striking piece of rustic kitchenalia or folk art treen.
The rich patina and well defined carving suggest a late 19th to early 20th century example. The thistle motif is particularly desirable, appealing to collectors of Scottish themed treen as well as farmhouse kitchen decorators.
Please note that this listing is for the butter stamp only and excludes the display items.
