Why aren't Connoisseur pipes stained?
ConnoisseurPipeShopOnline is owned by Rob Denholtz.  Connoisseur Pipe Shop, Ltd. was owned by Ed Burak and had no connection with ConnoisseurPipeshopOnline.  The two were entirely separate entities.  Rob Denholtz dba ConnoisseurPipeShopOnline was the original internet
representative of Ed Burak and Connoisseur pipes.     349 Ash Avenue, Spc. 58, Carpinteria, CA 93013, (805) 684-4060, robdenholtz@yahoo.com
"I find it entirely possible that, when future generations look at briar pipes from this era worth saving, worth displaying, worth reflecting upon, the pipes they most value, by a long shot, will be Ed Burak’s."

There is a quality inherent in fine art that speaks to us wordlessly and affects us in a profound way.  When we see a beautiful object, we want to continue to look at it.  When we handle it, we don't want to put it down.  We don't have to think about it; it just happens.  Fine art evokes in us passion. 

Ed Burak's pipes have that impact and impart that passioniate response. 

His work is accessible and available to collectors worldwide.

Go to gallery of Ed Burak's Connoisseur pipes.
