Gerd Faßbänder was born 1961 in Bonn, Germany. Now he is living in Eifel, small city of Euskirchen. At first, he was working in the industrial field but in 2005 he started carving pipes as a self-thought carver. At the beginning, it was only a hobby for him but when he stabilished his own workplace at 2006, he started making smoking pipes professionally. He is mostly designing the freehand pipes as his standard shape. In the case of the material he is using the high quality briar and German ebonite.
