I've always thought of wood burning as something I failed at miserably during Girl Scout Camp, not as a true art form, but these burned wood pieces by Boston artist Cecilia Galluccio are a surprise in their beauty and charming folk-art inspired intricacy.
Galluccio draws her designs directly onto furniture, serving boards, and adorable sets of spoons, making each piece totally unique. The chairs and tables are incredible in their detail, and their price reflects the amount of hand work that goes in to them, but the spoon sets would make perfect summer party hostess gifts, ringing in under $100. Browse all of Cecilia Galluccio's work at her Etsy shop, Burned Furniture.

LOVE
With the appropriate designs, I think these could be really great incorporated into scandinavian decor. Unfortunately these are way out of my budget, and I'm definitely not skilled enough to try this on my own!
WOW! I love these!
Must haves!!!
I love how she reverses the pattern. Most burned designs have the actual design burned, not in the negative. I wonder if she uses a template or some kind of material to block the burning and then blazes the pieces? Also, I wonder how functional the spoons are... I definately would like to improve my wooden spoons for cooking. Maybe only the handles?

Beautiful!
Wonderful!
Wow.. that is breathtakingly gorgeous!
Stunning!
I am thinking this could be (a very involved) DIY.
Thanks so much to Sarah Rainwater and Apartment Therapy for your kind mention of my work ! You have absolutely made my day. I've been making wood burned work now for about four years and never seem to tire of it; however it helps to know someone notices outside of Etsy (my main selling venue), and my studio at home.
I especially appreciate the pictures and links you added to the post; I've had new visitors, comments and orders all due to your very flattering post.
very appreciatively,
Cecilia G.
