Abi Natur 4 New
Abi Natur makes 50-60 pipes a year and has been a full time pipe carver for over 25 years. We first introduced his pipes to the USA around. Abi has never had enough pipes for us.
Each of Abi’s creations he names based on what inspired him. He draws his ideas from literature, painting, sculpture and of course natural shapes, living on the Adriatic seacoast town of Bar, Montenegro. This ancient land with 500 – 800 year old Olive trees, firmly roots him in the European artisan tradition. He makes one pipe at a time finishing it before he starts another. In 2025 he and Cornelius Mänz worked together creating the pipe for the Stuttgart show silent auction.
Abi works with with hand-picked briar blocks and Olive wood, both that he ages for 10 years. Stems are hand cut Vulcanite and occasionally Lucite. Pipes2smoke is pleased to offer Abi’s pipes. To own an Abi Natur pipe is to is to own an artwork.
