The BAT
About the maker:
Born in 1977 and now residing close
to Toronto Canada, Michael Parks works fulltime as a Pipe Maker. He has
been producing pipes since 1998, but has recently become a master of the art.
Michael has a unique talent of being able to take requests for shapes and
finding a block that has the perfect grain.
The studies of Art and Pipe Smithing have refined
Parks' perception of design. Carving with respect for the World's pipe makers
has enabled his own forms to evolve. Many of Parks' creations utilize enhancing
materials, such as White Gold, Whitetail Antler, Titanium and Freshwater Mother
of Pearl. Within every Parks pipe exacting standards unite craftsmanship and
fine material. To smoke a Parks pipe is to appreciate diversified design. A
Parks Pipe will enrich your personal collection as it clearly represents quality
through workmanship. Suited for the purposeful and limited in availability, each
pipe is a fine smoker's requisite, and a defining choice.
Michael's work consist a wide range of shapes, and his
style is becoming very distinctive. Each pipe is produced from some of the
finest materials, and all the stems are hand-cut with precision.
