This month’s speaker Emmett Gill will discuss ‘The Revival of Pipemaking in Ireland (1898-1908)’.
This talk will examine the state of Irish pipemaking in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, looking at some of the pipemakers who emerged during this period, including RL O’Mealy, John Henebry and William Rowsome, and outlining some of the factors that led to the emergence of these new makers.
