Nickname: "Bonet de ses pipes"
The logo is the outline of the Maiorca island.
Joan Bonet Nadal was born in Manacor on November 10, 1929.
During the military uprising of 1936, Sebastià Bonet, his father, was imprisoned for belonging to Esquerra Republicana. From the age of seven, Joan Bonet and his mother toured the prisons and labor camps of Mallorca, as well as the concentration camp of Formentera, to visit the imprisoned father. In the Manacor prison, Sebastià Bonet set up, together with other prisoners, a craft pipe workshop. Once free, he set up a pipe production business with his wife and son.
When Joan Bonethe reached the age of leaving school, at the age of fourteen, he also learned the trade to which he has been engaged all his life and which is worth the recognition of smokers from all over the world, as well as the pseudonym of " Bonet of his pipes ". In 1982 he made a pipe for a thousand smokers listed in the Guinness Book of World Records. He was honorary president of the Pipa Club of Spain, as well as participating in international pipe smoking championships around the world.
The vocation of Joan Bonet as a writer and willingness to learn to write in Catalan, along with his passion for the pipes lead to the translation of the Spanish in 1975, the book The art of smoking a pipe, by Joaquim Verdaguer. From that moment on he also devoted himself to writing books that have the pipe as their backbone.
He is the author of the short story titles Les rondalles de la pipa , from 1978, ... And smoking a pipe! , from 1981, and Pipades i vivències , published in 1983. In 2004 it appears With pipa and without: the sixth sense and other contexts . He is also the author of the popular works Las pipas: prontuario de pipología , from 1978, and La pipa en Baleares, from 1980. Cultural activist and defender of the Catalan language, he was a recognized figure both in Mallorca, in general, and in the Hostalets district of Palma, where he had his workshop. He was an Honorary Member of the Catalan Language Writers Association.
Joan Bonet Nadal died in Palma on July 12, 2017.

J. Rinaldi Pipes

== Jon Rinaldi ==
I have been a professional photographer for many years; my work has been in many publications and I am proud to have won numerous awards. I worked as an escort with Arizona Highways Magazine for a number of years helping with their wonderful photo workshops through out the state. Over the last five years I have taken up the art of briar pipe carving, I love working with carving tools to produce a beautiful well-balanced pipe. 
I am primarily self-taught; I dedicate a great deal of time seeking out many fantastic resources in our pipe-making world. 
I like to consider myself as an up and coming craftsman, who is developing new and better ways everyday to hone my skills in the technical and creative ways of pipe making. I find myself with shapes that follow traditional forms with a flare of my own. I like smooth finishes, but I am more drawn towards a softer looking sandblast.
I have the utmost respect for the great pipe makers on Pipedia; I would respectfully welcome your comments and constructive view. 
Note: Jon is no longer making pipes, but he is still painting and taking photographs.

J. Vincent Fils

The J. Vincent Fils had their facility at 11 rue Carnot in Saint-Claude, France. The history of this firm dates back to 1898 when Henri Vincent-Genod first had his workship at his house. Slowly, the company continued to expand first in 1909 when Léon Vincent-Genod, Henri's son expanded their workshop , as well as in 1923 when Léon's son Jules took over the Verguet-Buffet pipe factory. In 1927, the company became formally named the J. Vincent Fils firm, which was located at the 11 rue Carnot location. 
The Gardhill brand took up most of the firm's production capacity around the early 1990's. In 1993, the firm closed down.

Sometimes one is eaten from the center by inner needs for manual work. This need is sometimes subtle and delicate, and sometimes possible to satisfy it by drawing a few lines on a white sheet, but occasionally burns, forcing one to the creative effort.
For some time I'm fascinated by briar. The beauty of the grain, artistic freedom it offers, open new opportunities to satisfy the creating needs.
So, beside repair I'm starting to make pipes, to give vent to his inner unrest ... I am only a beginner. I make many mistakes, but each additional pipe is better. Experiments, sometimes I fall into a dead end. But I push forward.
My pipes are signed JSG
I also repair pipes. I undertake to sometimes extremely difficult repairs, as soon as it is a chance that the pipe will regain its original splendor and functional properties.
I invite you, to my website, and to use of my services

JS Pipes

Welcome to JS Pipes! 
http://www.jspipes.com
Let me introduce myself. My name is Joel Shapiro, and I live in Rancho Cordova, California. I offer a limited number of handmade briar pipes for sale. 
The type of briar (Grecian, Italian, etc.) will be noted for each pipe made, along with further details concerning stem type (ebonite, lucite, cumberland, etc.) and shank extensions. A complete size description will be included with each pipe posted for sale.
I do not fill any flaws in the briar, so the buyer will see exactly what is offered with nothing to hide. All pipes are finished with a buffed in coat of carnauba wax over the stain. Stains are all alcohol based and will not seal the wood, so won't alter the smoking experience or the breathing qualities of the briar.
In addition, I also offer a unique tamper design. My tampers are hand turned from quality hardwoods and the foot is cut at an angle to aid in mounding the tobacco and keeping the ember banked. I have found that this design results is fewer relights for a more enjoyable smoke. I can make these in any custom size and in most hardwoods, including some exotics. If you'd like a custom size (for very large pipes for example) or material, please contact me at jspipes@jspipes.com. All tampers are priced at $24.95, unless the material chosen is particularly expensive or difficult to work.
If you'd like to buy a pipe or tamper, but prefer to pay by money order or check, please e-mail (jspipes@jspipes.com) for my mailing address.
Would you like an email when new pipes are posted? Send me an e-mail and request to be on the JS Pipes mailing list! jspipes@jspipes.com

Jack The Piper

Jack The piper is a Fictional name, created by Giulliano Spitaletti an artesian Based in London.
Giulliano Is a Jeweller/artist and a youtube presenter in YTPC community.

Jacobean

"Jacobean" was the name used for some of the first pipes made by Les Wood and Dolly Wood following their departure from Dunhill.Information for this article was supplied by Mr Wood himself. The name was a reference to a period in British royal history and was one of a number of names Leslie and Dolly explored during this period for their pipes. Among the other names explored were "Elizabethan" and "Tudor." 
Originally, Jacobean pipes were made under the umbrella of the L&J Silverware company Leslie Wood had founded with Jimmy Craig at the end of the 1970s (the "J" in L&JS was first intended to refer to Craig's forename, just as the "L" did with Wood's). However, Craig had departed the company at the time of the Jacobean's manufacture.
Jacobean pipes shared many properties with those of the Ferndown make that Leslie and Dolly would eventually settle on. The stummels were hand-turned by Leslie, oil cured, and eventually finished by Dolly. The pipes also typically included silverwork provided by Leslie. The stems used for Jacobean pipes were however made from pre-formed ebonite, rather than the hand cut mouthpieces later used as standard on Ferndown pipes.
== Finishes ==
As Jacobean pipes were made during a transitional period in Leslie and Dolly's careers (with Les continuing to work as a contracted silversmith for Dunhill and other manufacturers), the names of Jacobean finishes changed during the years of their production. Jacobean's light smooth finish, for example, was originally called "Natural," before later becoming the "Root." Leslie was concerned that Dunhill would consider "Root" to be an intellectual property infringement, hence the original name. Dunhill later informed Leslie that he was free to use it without issue. The names and corresponding styles of Jacobean finishes overlapped with some of those later used by Ferndown with some remaining consistent (e.g., the Jacobean and Ferndown "Root") and others changing significantly (e.g., the Jacobean and Ferndown "Reo"). 
* Natural: light smooth, later becoming the Root.
* Original: dark brown smooth.
* Reo: red smooth.
== The End of Jacobean ==
The Jacobean make was eventually retired by Leslie and Dolly Wood for a number of reasons. One was that non-British smokers struggled to pronounce "Jacobean" and were unfamiliar with the British royal history from which the name was derived. Leslie and Dolly also wanted a fresh start for what would become the Ferndown make, in part due to changes in the location and methods of the pipes' manufacture.

Jacono

Tonino Jacono Courtesy of italianpipemakers.com
Tonino Jacono lives and works in Jesi, Marche. His profession as pipemaker started casually in 1981, when his father-in-law offered to create a new company together with him to produce freehand pipes. His father-in-law worked in the briar mill, cutting briar and plateaux for the most important Italian pipe factories; quintals of briar passed through his sawmill; it was quite easy to select the best pieces to produce important pipes.
Tonino's brother-in-law, who loved to make pipes too, had just bought some machines required to make pipes; so in 1981 the new company was born: each of the three members had different tasks: his father-in-law arranged the briar and did the drilling; his brother-in-law shaped the pipe through various sanding steps. Jacono did the final finishing of the pipes and the sales. Things went ahead ascending and descending for a year and half. In 1983 Tonino made a decision: he left Calabria and came back to Marche.
After a few months of studies, reflections, contacts, finally in October 1983, from the new workshop in Jesi, the first "JACONO" pipes were born. His philosophy was very simple: produce excellent pipes and sell them at the right price. 25 years have passed since then: the shapes and finishing of his pipes have changed, but his way of working is always the same, as is his philosophy.
Still today, Jacono creates his pipes one by one with the same passion that he had in 1981 when his father-in-law offered him his first job. He actually makes his pipes by hand, using only lucite mouthpieces. He also uses Sterling Silver or precious woods for inlays.
The majority of his pipes are sold in USA, but he is also represented in the most important stores in Europe, Russia, China and Japan.
Jacono Pipes are available in the following grades, denoted by chess (and poker) designations:
Knight (fully rusticated)
Bishop (partially rusticated)
Rook (smooth)
Jack (smooth)
Queen (smooth)
King (smooth)
The difference between the Rook, Jack, Queen and King grades is the quality of the grain. An E appended to the designation (as in Queen E) seems to denote a plus. 'Checkmate' denotes a larger than usual size. Jacono's goal appears to be to offer beautifully grained pipes with no flaws; if flaws appear in the carving process, they are rusticated out.

James Gilliam

James Gilliam is an American pipe maker living in Germany. The following information is from his old website:
Each pipe I make is unique and created with the greatest care and attention to detail. I use the finest Mediterranean briar for creation of my pipes and make the mouthpieces out of the finest German ebonite rods I can find. The materials incorporated into my designs include all natural exotic woods of varying types, pre-ban ivory, and natural horn.
Each pipe is individually designed, taking the wood grain into account and designed to provide an enjoyable smoke of your favorite tobacco.
The nomenclatures are dedicated to my family and represent the first letter in each of our names. As for the anchor, it represents my service in the U.S. Navy (CTRC Ret).
I do not have a grading system and my son created the two distinct nomenclatures imprinted on the finished product. Plateaux pipes are normally stamped with the first design while ebauchons are normally stamped with the second, but as of late I have started imprinting Nautical themed pipes with the JSEC and Anchor. This is due to requests from fellow Sailors and after some thought, it only makes sense. Sailors are Sailors.

Jameson's

Jameson's pipes are a sub-brand of GBD, named after one of their top designers, Horry Jameson. GBD produced consistently well made pipes, almost entirely of Algerian or Grecian briar. In the late 1960's to late 1970's, they introduced the "Collector" and "Unique" lines, made primarily by Horry Jamieson, who had carved for Barling for many years, and was skilled in freehand design.
JanPipes

== History of the firm ==
The name of this pipemaker is Jan Klouček. He has produced pipes with the mark JanPipes from the year 1999. His first experiences of tobacco pipes he received in "Baker Street" pipe and tobacco shop in Celetna Street, Prague. Later he had the honour to learn the pipe craft directly in its cradle, the French city Saint-Claude.
At first, the history of his work-shop looks to be short, but now he co-operates with the distinguished foreign partners and the pipes with mark JanPipes held the interest of Czech and foreign clients. In the course of forming his work-shop the important point was the close contact with the distinguished French company Chacom whose proprietor, Mr. Yves Grenard, helped him a lot with the commencement of tobacco pipes production and who became the most important expert adviser.
That's how they transfered one part of the French tradition of pipe production to Bohemia. Jan Klouček follows the local tradition of pipe production in Kostelec nad Černými lesy where he has installed his workshop. In the 19th century the local manufacturers produced fictile(?) and ceramic bowls. In producing pipes, he considers that to perfectly manage the craft is the most important base for freehand creation. To perfect this craft, he has produced, during the existence of his company, more than one hundred thousand pipes, the majority being the classic shapes. Later he started to produce exclusive pipes.
He divides his manufacturing programme into two basic groups: standard pipes and exclusive model lines. The standard line he makes in a few firm, classic and conservative forms of design, all of them in different finish and colour design. The standard line is primarily destined for the Czech market. The high point of his production are the exclusive pipes, of course. They are highly creative and in concieving their original design he takes inspiration from architecture, technical or natural motives. In creating designs for these pipes, the grain of wood and the best quality of briar play a very important role, which he chooses with extreme care for these pipes. The exclusive pipes give pleasure even to the exigent pipe-smokers. They are absolutely handmade in limited series and generally completed with accessories of solid silver to distinguish its originality.

Jan Andersson

Jan Andersson has made many significant contributions to chronicling pipe making, especially in Scandinavia. Among many publications he has written two very important books, which have been used extensively to contribute to the articles on Pipedia.
* Scandinavian Pipemakers available at Briar Books Press
The history of modern Scandinavian pipe-making started in Denmark in the middle of the last century. The evolution since has been amazing and is something of a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale. Andersson has had the privilege to follow this evolution for several decades and has met most of the pipemakers involved in it. In this extensively illustrated book, he masterfully weaves the stories of more than 50 pipemakers, some old and experienced, others quite new to the trade. From the Ivarssons to Bo Nordh to Jess Chonowitsch to Tom Eltang, Andersson tells the story of each craftsman knowingly and with great admiration. Jan has effectively catalogued the modern-day history of a movement of pipemakers from a distinct geography that which has contributed so much to the well-being of pipemen everywhere good taste prevails, be he a collector or, indeed, of that rarefied breed known today, quaintly as the pipe-smoker. With Andersson's colorful portrayal of these craftsmen, their enthusiasm and creativity is indicative that the evolution of exquisite Scandinavian pipe-making may yet carry forward on to the next century. With an introduction by Rick Newcombe.
* Bo Nordh, Pipemaker available at Briar Books Press
BO Nordh. I’m quite sure every pipeman knows the name, has seen the late master’s pipes, and maybe has one or two in his collection from which he smokes; perchance so exquisite is the piece that he is hesitant to draw a match to it and smoke the tobacco within. No matter, this book does what a single pipe of Bo’s could never do: It presents nearly every shape he ever designed and executed in briar. This charming story, told by friend and founder of the Pipe Club of Sweden, Jan Andersson, is sure to please those with a penchant for straight grain and innovative design. An all-color, 130-page extravaganza of exquisiteness, stunning shapes and wood grain, and vignettes of Nordh’s friends and collectors of his work.
Jan is also very active with the Pipe Club of Sweden.
And he is also an amateur pipe maker.
A pipesmoker and collector most of his adult life, Jan lives with his wife in Tyringe, a small village in
the southern part of Sweden.
