STEWART BURNTWORK: A Grand Experiment
At the turn of the century, The George S. Stewart Company of Norwalk Ohio embarked upon a grand experiment. They issued a catalog of pyrographic embellished oak furniture and accessories according to the Grand Rapids Furniture Record of October, 1901. Little is known of their eventual success but judging from existing artworks in collections, it was a short lived experiment as only a handful of surviving pieces are known.
