Pipe Stems
Round or Flat

We specialize in custom fit pipe stems.
When you order your pipe stem, it will be made just for you. Our pipe stems are hand crafted by us. They are not mass produced.

Wood Choices
We use traditional Eastern Aromatic Cedar Wood that is grown right down the road here in the Ozarks. We also use many other types of wood that we get from all over the world. See wood grain closeups below.

Style Choice - Round or Flat
We offer two styles of pipe stems. The flat pipe stem with rounded edges and the completely round pipe stem that we turn on a lathe.

Size
We offer many sizes of pipe stems. Our standard stems are
1 1/2 " wide and vary in length (11"-23") including the insert. The insert part is 2" long x tapered to 1/2" wide. We can make your pipe stem as thin as a pencil or as thick as you would like.

Unfinished wood or finished wood?
Most people prefer unfinished wood for pipe stems. We can put a nice finish on your pipe stem with Shellac. You choose when you order.

FYI - Wood - Natural Colors and Grain Patterns

We have taken great care with our website images so that they are a good representation of the "true" color and grain patterns of the wood choices we offer. Wood naturally varies from piece to piece. The grain pattern and the shade of the color are things that vary slightly from piece to piece. We do not stain our pipe stems
