It was about 20+ years ago when I started to carve my own pipes. As you have allready read in the Peter Matzhold section of this homepage I did it just for fun at the beginning. Then of course to try to bring my fantasies to live.
Now here is a bit of a story behind these days and of course some pictuers of the pipes I did at that time!
Sure that my design has changed and improved since then (finally i hope so) ! But it is very funny for me to whatch that old fotos of my pipes and to look at some of them which I never tried to sell.
All these pictures are made by me and I did them in black and white in my own foto-labratory. I was so proud at that time as I printed my first cataloge.
Okay too much words - now please go for the pictures and enjoy!
