Old German Clay Leaf Pipe (sold individually)
These small pipes have a series of leaf designs running vertically on the bowl.
This is an antique pipe found in a German cellar in 2016. The mold for these pipes was not part of the find and these are the only examples of this pipe available.
Markus Fohr is a pipe maker who lives in Montabaur, Germany, about 70 Miles from Frankfurt, Cologne, and Düsseldorf in the region of Westerwald.
His family has been making clay pipes for generations. He uses the fine white clay of the region which has been prized for centuries and is used to create the famous pottery of this region.
Some of the molds used are originals going back 240 years.
“I make pipes in the traditional way…” Markus Fohr
