What is This Little Carved Wood Block?

[Remy]

I got this yesterday at the thrift store for 50 cents in with the holidays stuff. It's a deer, so couldn't leave it. Wood and about 4x3 inches. Seems too big for a candy mold. I was thinking of maple candy. I have no idea. Anyway I put it on the little spice shelf on the kitchen counter. Anyone? Thanks.

Is that possibly a cookie press?

I was wondering that @Pinky but I haven't seen one recessed. I guess you'd have to spray it with grease. It is smooth.

I often Google things but didn't think of it for this item. Thanks to both of you! Mystery solved. Probably will not use as such.

if you put some saran wrap over it you might be able to use it.

I’d put it on a display shelf.

I have several of those. Got them in the Netherlands when I visited my Son who was stationed there in the USAF.

That's where it is, in the kitchen on a spice shelf. Also thrifted.

It’s called relief carving made with chisels in wood. Nice find.

I took a photo of your good find on my phone Google search bar so most posters are correct
cause it looks very close to this item on Amazon

It has a brand name so you can do further research if you please @Remy
