Date :Définition
Pipe turner, manufacturer of turned wooden pipes. When pipe smoking became popular in the 17th century, the "pipe-bakers" craft first developed in England and later in Holland from where it spread all over the Continent (for clay pipes). Documentary proofs about specialised wooden pipe turners in the vicinity of Ulm on the Danube did not become available until towards the end of the 17th century. The typical "Uln veined wood pipe" (from box-tree wood) was said not to have been made until 1733. Documents are available which confirm that wooden pipes were made in 1739 in Ruhla (Thuringia, Germany). It is likely that the production of wooden pipes started in Nuremberg around the same time. They were assembled from different parts and decorated with metal trimmings; a small chain was usually used to hold the individual parts together. The making of wooden pipes and their distribution was left for a long time to specialised turner workshops before tobacco goods shops included pipes in their range of smoking utensils.
