Product Description

Carved by hand in the nineteenth century, this beechwood butter print features a swan in graceful relief, its wings tucked close and neck arched in timeless symmetry. Used to imprint blocks of hand-churned butter, it once transformed a humble kitchen staple into an object of beauty and pride.

The beechwood has aged to a warm, honeyed tone, its surface smooth from years of use and handling. The carving remains crisp, a testament to the skill of the maker and the enduring strength of the wood.Butter prints like this were common in rural households, often passed down through generations and used to mark butter with symbols of home, nature, or good fortune.

The swan, long associated with grace and fidelity, adds quiet poetry to an object made for daily use.>A rare and evocative piece of domestic history, it may now serve as a decorative accent, a collector’s treasure, or a reminder of the elegance found in even the simplest acts of making.
