This stamp is used to making traditional bread (Slava cake) decoration for St. Nicholas Day, Serbian Orthodox Church.
The most important decoration of the Slava cake is a square-shaped seal (prosfornik seal) with a cross in the middle, among the arms of which is the inscription 'IS HS NI KA' (this inscription in Greek means "Jesus Christ wins").
There is a special wooden stamp for imprinting this sign (it is usually inherited from generation to generation and every house should have it.
This stamp at the photo is my and is 4x4cm in size.
In my first comment I will put a picture of the whole bread, so you can see what it looks like. Square-shaped seal is always in the midle of the Slava cake.
