[[File:RobertGruszczynski Pipe1.jpg|thumb|Freehand Sitter, courtesy [http://smokingpipes.com SmokingPipes.com]]]'''''From [http://www.smokingpipes.com/pipes/new/rogrus/ SmokingPipes.com]''': Robert Gruszczynski is a Polish pipe maker from Warsaw who specializes in particularly ornate, formal compositions. He has a background as a classical artist, having worked, at various times, as a sculptor, painter and as a restorer of antique sculpture and furniture. Though it's clear that much of his aesthetic inspiration lies outside of pipes, he also seems to draw on the work of [[Kent Rasmussen]] and [[Hiroyuki Tokutomi]] for stylistic inspiration. | |||
