Pyrography
Pyrography is the art of burning pictures into wood/leather using a high temperature 'pencil'.
It is frequently seen on functional items as well as purely decorative pieces.
Pictured below is some of Kash's work.
Small decorative plaques, in birch ply. They are about 3x6"
I use these for practice, as well as for short projects to fill in a stray half hour.
A selection of sycamore key fobs.
Colour has been added to some by use of watercolour paint.

These didn't photograph well (all others are scanned). But they show some practical uses of Pyrography.
