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.

We have been collecting and dealing in authentic American Folk Art and pyrography works of art for more than thirty years.

All works of art are guaranteed authentic and as described.
