Terry Doyle making a decorative gift pipe

Here is Terry Doyle making decorative gift pipes for our stock. He is following a standard pattern, but others can be made to order. This pipe is made from 80% tin and the length is approximately 46cm.


The gift of an embossed, inscribed organ pipe in an excellent way to express gratitude for an organist's achievement or personal milestone. We make many such pipes and the feedback we receive is uniformly positive.


When the Dutch organist Gert van Hoef married Marjolein Speijer in Voorthuizen, we were asked by his friend Jeff DeCoe to make an embossed organ pipe to mark the occasion.


The ideal size to affix to a wooden mount is between two and two-and-a-half feet in length. The note G in the two-foot octave with a 33mm diameter is recommended. And more details can found on our gift page on this website.
