Sergey Senatorov was born in in Riga, Latvia. When he was ten he made
his first pipe of pine, using only rudimentery tools. In 2006 he
began to make pipes of briar seriously. Senatorov is sometimes called
"The master Blaster" for his deep, well defined sandblasts. With
Sergey Saharov he is one of the rising stars of European pipe making.
This particular piece is beautifully made, showing a terrific ring
grain blast. The stem is of German Ebonite. The draw is easy and the
internal engineering is excellent. Senatorov has a great future among
the ranks of international pipemakers. Prices like this won't be
available forever.
