Question Relief Stamp Tools?

I'm a novice to relief carving. I've seen carvings with relief texture in parts of them. I believe that these textures were made by metal stamps, but I've been unsuccessful in finding any on the web, other than letters of the alphabet. Is there another term that's more commonly used?

Thanks, Dan

I have used leather stamps before on softwood. You can find them on ebay reasonable.

Woodcraft has carvers punches to do texturing. I've seen a lot of home-made tools too. Mike

Most of the wood carving suppliers have a set of texturing stamps.

That's exactly what I need (both options). Thanks for the quick feedback!
