Nils prefers bent shapes -- "they give me more creative possibilities" --, and constantly employes material such as buffalo horn, bamboo, and other exotic finishings. Symbol: NF
Nils is hardly a newcomer but due to his limited production per year (20-30 pipes) we decided to give him space here between the new and upcoming pipemakers. Beside being a teacher in wood work his hobby is doing woodturning and pipes.
