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.

Some years ago, life was really challenging and I decided to get this stamp to sort out things that I considered bullshit. I needed that... I really never got to use it but it helped me thinking that I had a tool to discriminate between what is important and what is just bullshit... do you follow?
Stamp, tweezers and letters.
I did start to pick out the letters for 'Macro Mondays' as you can see. BUT Way, way to fiddly for me!!!! 😁.
Thanks for visiting.

I can remember when, as a kid, I used to put postcards or postal enveloppes on top of a pan full of boiling water, so that I could detach the stamps without damaging them and collect them neatly in albums...
My collection is long gone (I've sold it for a ridiculously low price at a flea market in my teens), but I'm sometimes tempted again to put aside a few nice stamps. Maybe out of nostalgy.
For preparing this shot, I've started the process with a water boiler beforehand. Then for taking the picture I've been using the steam from an air humidifier, placed under the stamps.
This is one of the few shots with roughly the right amount of steam-induced blurriness but still enough crispness in the subject. 😊

Macro Mondays: Stamp
I had bought these little tags and letter stamps a while ago from Dollarama and figured they would someday come in handy for a photo op. I am not a crafty person and my OCD is getting to me that the stamped words aren't spaced right; on the otherhand, I don't mind how it looks because it wasn't made in a factory by a machine...lol
Thank you very much for your views and kind comments. HMM!
