Denmark, 1970-80s

A nicely made Danish freehad from Erik Nording. The pipe comes the most probably from the 1970-80 when his old gradings system was applied (A to F and 1, 2, 3….). An absolutely fine sandblasted ring grain covers both the bowl and the shank!

The pipe markings are “NØRDING \ DANMARK \ FS”. The length is 17.0 cm (6.7″), bowl’s height is 5.4 cm (2.12″). External diameter of the bowl is 5.0 cm (1.97″), internal diameter is 2.6 cm (1.02″). The depth is 4.6 cm (1.81″) and this pipe weights 56 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The chamber has been protected with a bowl coat.

England, 1960-70s This pipe didn’t require much effort to restore, and identifying it seemed fairly straightforward: if we look closely at the dimensions, the way the shape adapts to the grain of the briar itself, the style of the mouthpiece, and the font, this is of course a Charatan’s product from the so-called Second Lane…

Denmark, 1970s The pipe was most probably made in 1970s. There were many legendary pipe carvers working for W.Ø. Larsen and it’s usually difficult to say who exactly made a specific pipe. In this case we can guess that our today’s pipe was made by Jess Chonowitch, you can compare with other his pipes and…

The very best pipes were finished by the carver himself and stamped “Refbjerg”, while more affordable creations were marked “Søren”. Nevertheless this pipe is undoubtedly unique –…

Denmark Dating of pipes (except Dunhill) is both entertaining, puzzling and inexact process. Therefore we may thank to gentlemen from Stanwell who simplified the dating problem having made a range of collectable pipes on its 40-year anniversary in 1982 and invited the best masters for their design such as Tom Eltang, Jess Chonowitsch, Anne Julie,…
