Lately I've found myself digging out my wood burning iron to accent a few small projects I've made. It occurs to me that there is apparently no entry for pyrography/wood burning in any of my dictionaries. I had always called the craft 'wood burning' and it was only after googling it that I discovered it had a $10 name as well.

Pyrography is a craft where one takes a hot tool, called an iron and carves/writes lines into wood using heat. The tool is most often refered to generically as an iron.

Here is a Wikipedia Article on the subject, and here is a Phot of a Basic Wood Burning Iron.

I can see how we might simply Esperantize pyrography as 'pirografo', but I'd like an alterate, simpler, more self explanitory term:

brulskribado? brulskribarto? brulornamo ?

Also how shall we name the tool used?

brulskribilo? brulkrajono?

Piro- has quite a bit of support in Esperanto.

However the word for pyrography should be pirografio - cf telegrafio, radiografio, telefonio, fotografio etc.

Or you could talk of pirografaj artoj.

The artist I suppose would be pirografisto.

I invite others to list words in Esperanto where -grafo is the person.

Certainly, not in the case of fotografo and telegrafo.
