About the maker:

Than, during a stay in Basel, he met a gallery owner who asked him to exhibit some of his pipes. From that time on Matzhold decided to try making his hobby his new profession. It was a good decision. Finally the pipe smokers in Austria and Germany started watching and knowing his work. Matzhold is now well known and respected pipe maker in Europe and the USA.
