[QUOTE="joshoowah, post: 445441, member: 1977"] I used to not use the term "artisan" out of sheer disdain for hipster lingo, but the term seems to be sticking these days. An artisan, to me, would be an individual pipe maker rather than one who makes factory pipes. For instance, while the new Briarworks brands (Icarus, etc.) may be owned and designed by artisans, they are not artisan pipes. They are factory made pipes with a higher price tag because of who backs them. Either way, the terms are fairly synonymous, unless further clarification is given. [/QUOTE]
