My wife, who was in rehab at the time for a hip replacement revision (don't ask!),
gave me a gift certificate for Two Cousins, for a significant birthday, and they did
a great job. I described what I wanted, an "old barn wood look," and they made
two pipe racks and let me choose. I stuck with the old bar wood version as requested,
and they resoundingly agreed. They also sent along a tin of tobacco and a custom
tamper, and this is my main 12 pipe rack, along with a ten pipe rack with a tobacco
jar I inherited from my grandfather via my dad. I sure didn't have time to be making
a pipe rack at that point, so it was a great boost. I took it over to rehab, loaded with
all my pipes, and parked it on the rolling table at bedside, and it was a bright spot
in our week/month.

I have two myself, but custom pieces.
The first is a variation on the "Summer Cottage" (I didn't need the storage)
And this was something simple, just a rack to hold churchwardens.
I definitely recommend their work, although there can be delays with custom jobs.

These are beautifully crafted pipe racks. They have a design vision that they can just keep making different racks and cabinets in the same genre, over and over, and they still look great. That is not easy to do, it's no different than any other creative endeavor (like pipe making). At some point, if you don't keep a fresh outlook, you get burned out and start repeating yourself.
So hat off to the Two Cuzzins.
That said, it's not my style and they wouldn't fit into my house, but man, I could see one of these, in a very nice living room. making both the piper and the one that calls the tune very happy.
