General presentation

I am a self taught pipe maker. My craft comes from abroad, specifically from the Czech Republic. Due to its specificity, there are no traditions in our country. It can be said that I am practically a pioneer in its development on a professional basis. What specifically attracted
me at the time was the opportunity to create a product with a purely functional and aesthetic function. It combines the basics of my education (industrial design) and my love for handcrafted items. I have mainly been working with Spanish briar in recent years, this is the wood from which the pipe heads are made. For the  mouthpieces I use German and Japanese ebonite, acrylics, alternative materials, as well as bamboo, horn, silver to decorate the neck of the pipe.

The process usually begins with sketching. This is the moment when I think about the image I want to create, proportions.Then follows the selection of the correct block of wood and material for the mouthpiece, which is then shaped with the help of a bandsaw. This is followed by manual sanding with different sandpapers and a finish according to the idea.
