A Norwegian butter/cheese form or butter mold is a traditional tool used to shape butter or cheese into a specific form.The interior of the mold is carved with a decorative pattern. The mold is used by packing soft butter or cheese into the mold and pressing it tightly to take on the shape of the pattern. Once the butter or cheese has hardened, it can be removed from the mold and served.

These molds were commonly used in traditional Norwegian households to make butter or cheese in decorative shapes, often for special occasions such as weddings or holidays. They are now popular collector's items and are often sought after by those interested in Scandinavian folk art and traditional crafts. Some people still use them to make butter or cheese, while others use them as decorative pieces in their homes.
