About the Item

The craftsmanship and details are superb. Dimensions: 5.5 inches high and 11.75 inches diameter. Handmade, hand painted and hand burned using pyrographic techniques Provenance: New England collection. 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.

All works of art are guaranteed authentic and as described.
