Denmark, 1960s

Not every top rated candidate will be a president. Not every item with the number 1 is the oldest one. At the same time the age of a pipe is something like an age of wine: such a kind of a quality sign.

Our today’s pipe’s got at least two signs: the shape (number 01 is referring to Sixten
Ivarsson) and the trade mark number registered in 1948. The number has been used until the end of 1960s. So the pipe has come from the very nice and romantic period: high hairstyle, short skirts, young “Beatles” and most of people smoke tobacco, not something else.

The pipe markings are “STANWELL \ REGD N 969-48 \ HAND MADE \ DENMARK”, “01”. The length is 13.0 cm, bowl’s hight is 6.0 cm. External dimensions of the ream are 3,5 x 3,0 cm, internal diameter of the bowl is 2.0 cm. The depth is 3.0 cm and this pipe weights 38 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem (has been slightly corrected), no filter. The tobacco chamber is cleaned till wood.

Denmark, 1960s An absolutely convincing and collectable large Stanwell chimney pipe from the registration era (1948 – early 1970s). The crowned “S” on the stem was introduced around 1960 so the pipe can be dated by the 1960s.

Denmark, 1960-70s The early Poul Hansen pipes did look strange if not odd. Actually he came to pipe carving from machine and tool making and among he’s very much valued and respected customers were great pipe brands like Pibe-Dan, W.Ø. Larsen and others. And it seems it was not only a good business for him,…

Denmark The pipe inspired by the greatest pipe making genius! The shape number 08 (Bent with push mouthpiece) was designed by unsurpassed Sixten Ivarsson in 1950s. This lightly smoked pipe was made the earliest in 1970, but definitely still at the Danish factory.

Denmark 1950-60s A really exceptional Stanwell freehand pipe from the registration era! The registration number was assigned to Stanwell in 1948 and was stamped on Stanwell pipes until the beginning of the 1970s. The pipe doesn’t bear any shape number what is very uncommon for Stanwell. Absence of this number may mean that the pipe…

Denmark, 1960s A very nice lightweight and rare Stanwell pipe from the registration era. The shape number 78 was created by unsurpassed Siksten Ivarsson in 1950s. But since there is a crown on the stem, then the pipe was made a bit later, in 1960s. Usually Stanwell offered all shapes both with smooth and sandblasted…
