Khosroanjam continued to work on her wood turning and on using materials such as bamboo, and soon began selling her pipes under the Atin name. As she made more and more pipes, she had the opportunity to think about and develop her own style and approach to the practice. Her husband’s Keresaspa pipes were, and continue to be, a source of inspiration when it comes to both the aesthetical and technical aspects of a pipe. But Atin Pipes also draw inspiration from other pipemakers, especially 20th century Scandinavian masters, such as [[Ivarsson, Sixten|Sixten Ivarsson]] and [[Nordh|Bo Nordh]], as well as the Japanese pipemaker [[Gotoh|Kei ‘Ichi Gotoh]]. | Khosroanjam continued to work on her wood turning and on using materials such as bamboo, and soon began selling her pipes under the Atin name.

Those with a keen eye for Scandinavian design will likely recognise shapes and motifs in Khosroanjam’s work; Ivarsson’s ‘Peewit’ and ‘Nefertiti’ figures, for example, or Gotoh’s distinctly Japanese take on the ‘acorn,’ can be seen reinterpreted in Atin pipes. Fans of early Danish production pipes, such as those of Stanwell, may also notice a familiarly ‘Danish’ approach to exploring distinct stem designs. Other sources of inspiration for Khosroanjam’s pipemaking include the natural world, such as flowers or fruits, though she generally leans towards minimalist approach to form, and favors smooth, unstained finishes. For her own pipe smoking, Khosroanjam’s enjoys classical, lightweight shapes, especially the bulldog. | Those with a keen eye for Scandinavian design will likely recognise shapes and motifs in Khosroanjam’s work; Ivarsson’s ‘Peewit’ and ‘Nefertiti’ figures, for example, or Gotoh’s distinctly Japanese take on the ‘acorn,’ can be seen reinterpreted in Atin pipes.
