MANUFACTURER ARTISAN:

Chen Ce lives in northern China, in the city of Anshan, in Liaoning Province.

His first approach to the pipe was with his grandfather, a pipe smoker; he began building his first pipes in 2012.

Loving classic style and tradition, he continuously improves, focusing on the manual construction of the pipe; using Italian briar and other top-level materials, he is able to offer pipes with innovative and exciting design.

In 2015 he met two artisans of high level, Ping Zhan and Sam Cui, from whom he learned many notions and improvements in technical and constructive fields; his meticulous finishing is astonishing, as if from a manual for High Grade pipes.

In 2016 he met Xiaomei, his current partner, who graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts with an important jewelry project; this brought a great aesthetic improvement to his pipes with various ideas and decorations.

Subsequently Xiaomei discovered and learned the art of pipemaking, collaborating with Chen Ce in the construction of pipes, even with her own brand.
