Made in Denmark. I might start there? There is probably a registry of trademarks that could help.
Did find one hit here:

By the way WC 1994.458 smokers from 20 countries incl from Australia and USA, not so many but they were there.

38 from Japan and a couple from Taiwan.Champion Claudio Cavicchi from Italy 2 hours 52 min and 35 seconds who lay down his pipe when runners up Jesper Bo Petersen finished 40 seconds before.

From our magazine Piber & Tobak..........but I was there also.

Thank You Jensen! Very interesting information. Were you in the competition? Do you happen to know of a list of people the trophys were awarded too?

Impressive piece. Do you recognize the wood? It looks in perfect condition. The right collector might make a good offer.
