STANWELL Pipe of the Year 2012 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe Brown Billiard 7mm POTY
Posted at 9:57 pm , on June 14, 2018
Stanwell has been a respected name in pipes here in the US for about 50 years. They’ve made so many different lines of pipes in that time that it’s almost impossible to count them, but some of the best have been their annual entry called the Stanwell Pipe of the Year. Each year’s shape is unique, and they make the pipes in a variety of finishes. Many of these pipes have unique trim or stems and some even have a small metal plate engraved with the year embedded in the briar. Some choose based on volume of sales and some choose exquisite production pieces that would qualify, in their opinion, to receive such an award. Pipe chamber is coated with a carbon coating to speed up the break in period. STANWELL Pipe of the Year 2012 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe Brown Billiard 7mm POTY. Pipe of the Year 2012. Bowl Height (at highest). Bowl Width (at widest). Please Note: Pipe will differ from photo’s grain, sandblast patterns, slight color variations etc… As photo’s are for demonstration purposes only. Please enlarge and view all photos, as they are part of the description. This pipe would make a nice collection piece for the Stanwell enthusiast or for the first time smoker not looking to spend hundreds on a new briar pipe. Please feel free to ask any questions. Pipe stand not included. When pipe smokers talk about pipes that are consistently great smokers, exhibit the creative and beautiful designs that exemplify Danish pipemaking and offer the best value in factory produced pipes, they are talking about Stanwell. We hear time and time again, from customers and top pipe makers from around the world, that Stanwell is the best factory produced pipe in the world. Stanwell maintains the most modern pipe making facility in the world and for many years has enjoyed some unique relationships with many legendary Danish pipe makers. In fact, Stanwell occupies a pivotal place in the history of the world-wide popularity of Danish-made pipes. In 1942, because of the unavailability of English pipes and raw briar, Poul Nielsen began making pipes from beech wood for Danish customers. At the time, Poul was managing a company called Kyringe, which made various wood products. At the end of the war, briar became available again, so Nielsen began importing his own briar and started making briar pipes to compete with the English manufacturers. It must be remembered that in 1948, England was the single great center for pipe making. Therefore, Nielsen changed the name of his pipes to “Stanwell”, which sounded much more like a proper English name than “Nielsen”. He also created the horse drawn carriage logo for its English connotations. He later changed his own last name from Nielsen to Stanwell, a testament to his devotion to the pipes he made. Stanwell’s relationships with Danish pipe makers goes back to Sixten Ivarsson, who is considered the originator of modern Danish pipe making. Ivarsson was commissioned to design Stanwell shapes. In 1969, the factory was moved a town called Borup , just outside of Copenhagen to be closer to Ivarsson. Stanwell revolutionized the pipe world with his new factory; until its debut, very few pipes were exported from Denmark. It was the Stanwell factory that first began mass exportation of Danish pipes and first whetted the appetites of Americans and Germans for the Danish pipe. Today Stanwell produces around 300,000 pipes annually. Stanwell relies on designs from the great Danish pipe makers, from Sixten Ivarsson to Jess Chonowitsch from which they create their hundreds of shapes. Since most sandblasting for Danish pipemakers is done at the Stanwell factory (Stanwell has a reputation for excellence in sandblasting that is used by many, many Danish carvers from Poul Winslow to Jess Chonowitsch), many of the pipes that they sandblast are then observed and used as starting points for Stanwell shapes with the consent of the original carvers. This interesting and unusual symbiotic relationship gives Stanwell the opportunity to offer hundreds of unusual and interesting shapes at an affordable price. Once a new shape is established and hand carved, it is then reproduced using a lathe. Following the initial carving of the pipe which is done by machine, all other processes are done by hand, from the final sanding and staining to the application of the wax finish. There are approximately 120 manual steps to Stanwell’s pipe making process. The Stanwell factory is arguably the most efficient pipe operation in the world. It is this efficiency that has made Stanwell so remarkably price competitive and able to offer pieces of superior quality to those created by other large factories. Essentially the goal of Stanwell is, and always has been, to produce high quality pipes at a price that is truly within the reach of the common man. Stanwell pipe offers exceptional quality at a remarkably affordable price. Today it often seems that there are few options in between low cost, very low quality pipes and the handmade pipes that fetch hundreds of dollars. Stanwell manages to fill this void commendably by offering pipes close to the quality of the handmade with prices that are only slightly higher than drug store pipes. Stanwell pipes are a must for any pipe collection. The Stanwell name is a cornerstone of Danish pipe making. In owning a Stanwell, you will not only enjoy beautifully styled, great smoking pipe at a great price, you will own a piece of pipe making history.

STANWELL Bjarne Nielsen B1 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe Brown Billiard NEW
Posted at 8:00 pm , on May 24, 2018
Bjarne Nielsen and Stanwell worked together on a pipe line. Seriously, need I say more? I often wonder how the design concept conversation went. I certainly know how it turned out. Take a peek at this stately beauty and snag one before it’s gone. The Stanwell pipe factory is believed to be one of the most efficient pipe operations in the world. This must be one of the reasons why Yvonne Nielsen gave them permission to recreate on of Bjarne Nielsens pipes. What Stanwell created was a billiard which is based off of an old classic Bjarne Nielsen style. This pipe shows a nice smooth dark brown finish and a sterling silver band. Pipe chamber is coated with a carbon coating to speed up the break in period. STANWELL Bjarne Nielsen B1 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe Brown Billiard NEW. Over Bjarne Nielsen Right side of shank: B1.

PETERSON Kinsale XL20 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe Bent Billiard Fishtail
Posted at 7:05 am , on April 25, 2018
Originally the “Rathbone” from the “Return of Sherlock Holmes” series, this bent Billiard shape possesses an unusually lofty bowl, nearly verging upon the proportions of a Stack. The heaviness of the stem, as well as the way in which it bends, however, gives it more of the feel of a bent Dublin – albeit a pretty tubular one, which is fitting for a Peterson. All in all it is a handsome if unusual design, which is to say a model Peterson. Chamber is carbon coated to speed up the break in period. PETERSON Kinsale XL20 Smooth Briar Tobacco Pipe – Bent Billiard – Fishtail. Left side of shank. Over OF DUBLIN over. Right side of shank: XL20. Bowl Height (at highest). Bowl Width (at widest). Please Note: Pipe may differ from photo’s grain patterns, slight color variations etc… As photo’s are for demonstration purposes only. Please enlarge photos as they are part of the description. This pipe would make a nice collection piece for the Peterson enthusiast or for the first time smoker not looking to spend hundreds on a new briar pipe. Please feel free to ask any questions. The Nurnberg brothers Friedrich and Heinrich Kapp, whose elegant Dublin tobacconist first opened for business in 1865 on Grafton Street, Dublin could scarcely have dreamt that they would participate in the birth of a legend. It was not long before Charles Peterson, walked into Kapp Brothers Grafton Street premises armed with a revolutionary pipe and ambitious plans for the future. There and then, Peterson suggested that the brothers go into partnership with him to turn his pipe dream into the world’s dream pipe. They agreed and the company was renamed Kapp & Peterson. Pipe and cigar smokers would stroll down to the elegant premises for professional advice on the subtle nuances that determine a good handmade cigar or pipe. The Peterson brand was embraced by politicians, business leaders, sportsmen, artists and writers. The skills and craft which Charles Peterson applied to his original invention are continued by the dedicated team of craftsmen at Peterson today. Whether as a gift for a friend or for your own personal use, you will appreciate the excellence of the Peterson range of cigars, tobaccos, pipes and smoking accessories.
