Metz is simply the name of the city of France from which originated the 2 founders of the brand.

"This is the story of a man and his son-in-law who, passionate about pipes, create a whole. Jean Baptiste Choquin and Gustave Butz, two Messins ( born in Metz) make their first pipe together, in 1858. It is called Choquin and is very well known to amateurs. Composed of a horn pipe, an extension of albatross bone and silver rings. Then is born the company Butz-Choquin."
