And not long ago, the young, talented pipe maker completed his product design studies at the university. The fact that he had previously completed a solid carpenter's apprenticeship is certainly not a hindrance when working with wood. | ||
Dirk Heinemann already has a lot more "background" than many other pipe makers. Apart from that, one can see influences and inspiration from Werner Mummert, Holmer Knudsen, Tom Eltang, and Cornelius Mänz in his pipes. He attaches great importance to perfect workmanship. Just as much attention is paid to the mouthpiece as to the pipe bowl, which is noticeable in the wonderfully shaped, flat bite. Dirk only uses German rod ebonite. He also stays true to his "natural" line with the applications and uses decorative wood, horn or mammoth ivory as ornaments for his pipes. He manufactures both with and without a filter. | Dirk Heinemann already has a lot more "background" than many other pipe makers.
