The Ikebana pipe collection is the Holy Grail of the japanese House Tsuge. These pipes are certainly the most beautiful handcrafted pieces in the world. Indeed, Tsuge Ikebana pipes are only unique models made from exceptional briar. Within the Tsuge workshop, Mr Kazuhiro Fukuda was the only pipe master to work on the Ikebana series for decades. During this period, the Ikebana collection was actually called "The Flowers of the Pipe World". Behind this designation, it must be understood that each Ikebana pipe is fashioned to be as elegant as a really rare orchid. Nowadays, Ikebana pipes are made by Ms Asami Kikushi, but on our online shop we have the chance to propose you the creations of these two impressive pipemaker craftspeople. Did you know that the word "Ikebana" means "the art to make flowers live" ("living flowers")? In Japan, the organization of fleural compositions is an ancestral art which invites people to appreciate the simple things in life. On www.pipeshop-saintclaude.com, each Tsuge Ikebana pipe is a creation of impeccable quality, littered with flames and bird's eyes.
