Hans "Former" Nielsen is a living Legend, and on a similar level as Sixten Ivarsson, Jess Chonowitch or Tom Eltang. His Status, Prestige and Craftsmanship cannot be undererstimated. Please also check out the pipedia article.

I have several former pipes, and I enjoy them all:

This planter was formerly a pipe. It adds a nice warm touch to my workbench, and provides fresh herbs in the kitchen.

This former pipe is now a bedside lamp. Houseguests often remark about how creative I am, and I agree with them.

This former pipe is now a doorstop. It has become quite a conversation piece among my friends and family. They often remark about how lucky my wife is to have married such an innovative young man as myself. I am blessed with honest friends.

So, you going to share where, or tease us? LOL 😆

I would like to see this pipe?

I’ve actually been keeping my eyes out for one of his pipes.

Thanks
I'll be posting it here for sale this evening. Tell all your rich friends lolz. No idea on the time frame for when the pipe was made. It's stamped "Handmade" not "Freehand. I'd guess late 80s - mid 90s.
