Jorgen uses only one color for all his work, as opposed to many pipe makers who use multiple stains. The reason behind this, is that this one color most clearly shows the grain, while also showing that there are no defects which have been covered up in any manner. In addition, each Jorgen L pipe develops a beautiful patina as it is smoked, enhancing its beauty even further.

Because most of his pipes were made for Stokkebye, the [[Jorgen L]] pipes have become very collectible.


Jorgen is the only pipe maker, to my knowledge, that will repair or make a new mouthpiece free of charge. The customer has only to pay for one-way mailing, as Jorgen will pay return postage.
