History of the Pyrography:
py·rog·ra·phy, a noun, is the art or technique of decorating wood or leather by burning a design on the surface with a heated metallic point. Pyrography was particular popular in America and Europe during the last quarter of the 19th century and first quarter of the 20th century.
We will be offering more important high quality Folk Art and pyrography works of art in the near future.
We have been collecting and dealing in authentic American Folk Art and pyrography works of art for more than thirty years.
Our president has authored informative articles on collecting pyrography and has amassed what is believed to be internationally the largest and finest collection of pyrography works of art- which is now being de-accessioned.
All works of art are guaranteed authentic and as described.
