What is Pyrography

Pyrography is the art of decorating wood or other materials with burn marks by using a controlled heated pen.

A large range of tones and shades can be achieved simply by varying the type of tip and temperature.  In addition, the manner in which the pen is applied will create different effects.  Light-colored hardwoods such as basswood, beech and birch are best. Their fine grain is not obtrusive.  Pyrography can be applied to leather items, using the same technique.  Pyrography is also popular among gourd crafters.

We offer woodburners made in USA and Canada noted for their exceptional quality and service. For those that wish to use more economical interchangeable Pen and Tips we recommend the Razertip System. We do NOT carry the Colwood interchangeable/replaceable tips.
