'''Update:''' We are sad to report that Peter Heeschen has passed on from this World to join the great pipe makers that came before him, and prepare the way for those of us to follow. Although I am not sure of the details of his passing, word came to many of us through E-mail and social media on December 1st, 2015. Peter will be greatly missed, but thankfully, many wonderful examples of his work will live on, and remind us of his tremendous talent, and generous spirit. --[[User:Sethile|sethile]] ([[User talk:Sethile|talk]]) 16:14, 1 December 2015 (CST) | '''Update:''' We are sad to report that Peter Heeschen has passed on from this World to join the great pipe makers that came before him, and prepare the way for those of us to follow.

Peter Heeschen produced approximately 30 pipes per month on his small farm property near Odense. Mr. Heeschen's pipes are made from top quality aged briar. Each pipe will smoke like it is already broken in from the very first bowl. | Peter Heeschen produced approximately 30 pipes per month on his small farm property near Odense.
