About the Item

 

HIGH-GRADE SMOOTH RHODESIAN SMOKING PIPE- ONE PIPE TWO PIPE MAKERS

 

This beautiful smoking pipe is designed, carved and finished by two great German artisans: Maike Paeßens and Holmer Knudsen. The collaboration of these two pipemakres turn out to be something very interesting. The shape of the pipe is masterfully designed. This creation has the absolute balance and offers pretty charming tight-lines of brair on the Foot and Shank area. The flame finish of the pipe is very remarkable and adds a high value on this item. This Rhodesian pipe comes with its own pouch.

 

About the Artist

 

Maike Paeßens was born in Schleswig-Holstein region, in the Baltic Sea, Germany. She had a great passion for tobacco and smoking pipes when she was already a teenage. She spent a lot of her time at the weekend and during various holidays in Denmark, where she got her first pipe as a gift (at the age of 17). In 1997 she moved to Berlin, where she studied philosophy. But after a while, her passion for the pipes bring her to another way. Finally in 2010 she start to carve the pipe professionally and with the help of pipe maker Nils Thomsen in Berlin. 

 

"My first pipe was carved in the workshop of Nils Thomsen and subsequently followed by many more. From then on I learned at Nils Thomsen workshop how to made the pipe professionally and finally in the spring 2011 I established my own workshop labels with Maike Pipes logo", the artisan said.

 

This artisan won the German and East German championship in smoking pipe competition in Wriezen. She also got the honor together with Nils Thomsen for Planta-DB to promoter design Berlin in International Tobacco Fair in Dortmund.
