Paul's Pipes

About us

In my spare time I am either actively mentoring young men or fly fishing or photographing with my beautiful wife. I love to challenge others to help preserve our waters and fisheries and use my natural talents to do so. My satisfaction comes from pouring my whole soul into whatever I am pursuing in the arts and in my communities where I'm engaged.

What we do

I am an artisan wood carver specializing in tobacco pipes with a horticulture background of 30 years. I typically spend most days in my humble little woodshop in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California hand carving fine Italian briar into exquisite tobacco pipes.

Where we do it

From the Central Coast to the Central Sierra Nevada
