New Pipe on the Way!

[CoffeeAndBourbon]

Just getting back into pipes (and with a real income finally), I was looking for a pipe form a Danish maker my friend used to collect back in the 90's. Well, what do you know? I found one! A Celius Queen is on the way to it's new home. I'll post pics when it gets here.

I never heard of that brand, but I hope it is a good one for you. I'll watch for a photo, if available, and any info on the brand, to learn something new.

Looks like a good Danish brand to me. I've had good luck with Johs and Nording for Danish pipes, as well as the long discontinued brand Bari (the one pipe I have). I'm impressed by the various series in the Celius line. I wish they'd show some prices to give a range on that. I'm not in the market, but just for context. Keep us posted! I also like Stanwells, still a Danish designed brand but made in Italy. As a young child, I had a Danish friend, like in first grade -- super smart kid. His dad was with the Danish consulate in Chicago; long since gone on to other foreign posts and eventually back to Denmark.

I have a Stanwell freehand in my small collection as well as a freehand Cellini. I guess I have a thing for freehands

Yup. I've got several. They all smoke well.

Freehand indeed, and extra Danish.

Extra Danish! Damn, I am famished, and haven't had a good Danish in quite a while....

Interesting look on that pipe. Nice!

Very nice shape! These Danish style pipes with the natural rims are starting to grow on me.

I know. It really is a disease. When I first started I was very clear about what I liked and didn’t. Hated Dublin’s, Bulldogs, plateau tops and particularly loathed freehands. Needless to say, my tastes have changed to the point that at one time I was collecting Dublins, I have a bunch of bulldogs and plateau tops, and, let’s face it, freehand really is kind of a loose term! ? Who knows what will be next?
