Folk Art Antique Pyrographic Burnt Wood Small Keepsake Trunk or Chest #34600

A picturesque small keepsake trunk or chest is an example of the folk art craze around 1900 of "pyrographic" or burnt wood carving. A hot iron tool was applied to solid maple to create "burnt" designs carved into the wood.

A difficult to decipher signature label is dated 1918, and may be a gift dedication.

American made, the restored finish preserves intricate detailing. Hardware is later on this antique hand crafted furniture.
