”Chr Henrik” er kunstnernavnet på en dansk pibemager, hvis fulde navn var Henrik Christian Christensen (HCC), født den 9.februar 1929, død den 25.august 1984.
Han designede og skar sine helt særegne piber, som bar præg af det berømte "Danish Design", der udstrålede smukke designmæssige linjer, som gav hans piber sit helt eget præg. Han eksperimenterede også med sammensætning af materialer i sine piber, noget der gav dem et spændende særpræg.
HCC was also a visual artist with a large number of oil paintings behind him. But his main job was as an advertising designer, where he over time created a large number of well-known company logos for a large number of Danish companies. In addition, he spearheaded the design content of a large number of contemporary advertisements and brochures.
Pipe-making remained a sideline, though at times he was very productive. He was primarily active as a pipe maker in the years 1965 until his death in 1984, where he left 16 completely finished pipes, which only appeared at his wife's death in March 2015. How many pipes he got cut and sold in total is not known. He also left behind a larger collection of purchased Bruyererod bricks, which should have become Chr Henrik pipes, but they were sold to a pipe shop in Copenhagen run after his death.
He had his pipes exhibited at several "fashion week" in Copenhagen at the time, where especially Japanese customers showed great interest in his pipes.
He had a collaboration with i.a. the pipe shops W.Ø. Larsen and Pibe-Dan in Copenhagen, where he exchanged experiences with their pipe makers, and in addition had his pipes for sale in their shops.
All original Chr Henriks pipes have on the bottom of the pipe marked: "Chr Henrik Denmark". In addition, a total of four of his very beautiful pipe boxes have survived.
