Yiannos Kokkinos Pipe #26029

The Yiannos Kokkinos Pipe #26029 is an expressive artisan piece with a flowing, sculptural profile and a warm smooth finish. Its rounded bowl carries a soft organic presence, with a gently rising line through the shank that gives the pipe a graceful, forward-moving silhouette.

The honey-brown briar finish highlights delicate grain movement across the bowl and shank, with a polished surface that brings out the pipe’s natural warmth. The bowl is broad and rounded, with subtle carved shaping along the sides and a clean, dark chamber opening set into the smooth rim.

At the shank, Kokkinos adds a distinctive layered accent arrangement: a natural wood-toned section, a darker contrasting band, and a colorful marbled accent with turquoise, rose, and cream tones. The black tapered stem is fitted with a bold coral-red stem ring, giving the pipe a striking modern contrast while preserving its handmade character.

The underside is stamped with Yiannos Kokkinos’ signature-style mark, “Handmade in Cyprus,” and the number 26029. Creative, elegant, and unmistakably individual, this pipe is a fine choice for collectors drawn to Mediterranean artisan work and distinctive contemporary shaping.

From his own words:

My name is Yiannos Kokkinos. I live in Cyprus and find myself the only pipe maker in my country. I studied graphic desing in grecee and fine arts in Italy and used to work as a designer .Now I run a small cafeteria in Limassol which houses a workshop upstairs where I can dedicate my free time to pipe making. My pipes are completely handmade. I use the machine tools only for drilling and polishing . I create my pipes out of Mediterranean briar, stems come from Germany, Italy and ,are made of ebonite or acrylic. Also I can use some other materials (e.g. metal, bamboo, olive wood) depending on the design of the pipe. I am crafting my pipes with love and care and I hope you will enjoy smoking my pipe as much as I did when I carved it for you. Smoke in piece!
