wood-block
Printer's relief stamp
A wood-block is a block of wood, particularly one used for printing—carved with a design that transfers ink to paper.
Wood-block printing predates movable type and remains an art form.
A wood-block floor uses thick wooden blocks rather than planks.
Also spelled as one word: woodblock.
