Wood carving is wood that has been worked with a cutting tool, giving it a certain shape. Wood carving can occur as an independent work of art (a wooden figurine or sculpture) or to embellish, for example, clocks or furniture. Woodcarving used to be the craft of the woodcarver and the sculptor, but today woodcarving is often done mechanically with a milling machine.

The woodcarver usually uses a set of cutting tools of various shapes. A basic set often consists of about ten pieces, whereby cutting tools with a rectangular cross-section are called a chisel and a curved chisel is often called a gouge. An extensive set can consist of more than a hundred pieces.
