FAQs

Poker work, also known as pyrography, involves burning designs into wood using heated metal tools. It experienced a major revival during the Arts and Crafts movement and the late Victorian and Edwardian eras.

These stools typically feature solid timber frames, such as beech, oak, or walnut, joined in a curule or X-shape for structural support. Surface ornamentation was often hand-burned and sometimes subtly tinted.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-tooled depth in the burnt lines, traditional joinery methods appropriate to the period, and natural ageing of the timber and surface patina rather than modern laser cutting.

This type of versatile seating can be used as an occasional accent piece, placed in an empty corner, or positioned near a fireplace to add textural interest and historic character to a contemporary room.

Maintain these pieces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and fluctuating humidity levels. Clean gently with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical polishes that can damage the delicate burnt surface.
