Kolrosing

Kolrosing is an old Scandinavian art form, dating back to Viking times. Similar to scrimshaw, Kolrosing is made by making fine cuts with a knife, then rubbing ink into the cuts to reveal the pattern.
Scrimshaw, the handiwork created by whalers, used bone, whale teeth or ivory. Kolrosing is done on wood.
