    Hello all,

    Just wondering if anyone can share any information on what I think is a block print stamp. All replies would be very much appreciated and thanks for looking.

      Hi SamO,

      This looks to be a hand-carved printing block of the type used to print fabric in India/South Asia. These are still in common use and the used blocks often turn up for sale in tourist shops.
