Trever Talbert from the USA (now living in France). My first pipe from an american pipemaker. He was situated in Thomasville - now in Brittany and has a very nice and informative homepage! Go there to see more of his work and how he carves and designs. What is very unusual on Trevers pipes is the mouthpiece. Not that he uses unusual materials but the finish and the way he does the slot on his bits is very nice and feels comfortable.
