Bjarne Neilson was a Danish pipe carver who made pipes for over 30 years. He recently passed away from a sudden heart attack, and sadly, no more Bjarne pipes are in production. Bjarne started in 1973 after ascertaining there was a high demand in the US market for Danish freehand pipes. He supplied that demand beautifully, and is a staple in many pipe smokers’ collection. Each pipe is made on a lathe, and there are no model numbers. Bjarne made pipes ranging from the mid-grade pipes up to the high end pipes. Any of these would be a great starter pipe, or a fine addition to a growing collection.
