Klaus Hahn is a German artisan from the Duisburg. He has made pipes as a hobby since the 1980s, with a small production in which "the shape follows the grain". He uses ebonite stems and accessories such as synthetic amber, horn, and exotic wood. In 1988 he turned his hobby into a passion, and started to manufacture handmade pipes in  his workshop. The mouthpieces are hand cut from Ebonite. The high interest in his pipes  encouraged him to offer them to dealers in Germany and Switzerland. In preparing his pipes he rejects the use of putty fills, but have no problem with small spots, since these do not spoil the pleasure of smoking in any way. He places great value on the inherent grain in the briar, and work to obtain a beautiful surface to accentuate the Straight or Birdseye grain of each piece. This leads to pipes of medium and larger sizes. They have smoking advantages that many of his fans appreciate.
