Older Stanwell PAD

I had a moment on ebay the other night.... feeling the draw of history.

I hope you like them, a Stanwell 08 Vario and a Royal Danish 9 20.

Great looking pipes! I love that old Ivarsson boat shape.

 

[donjgiles]

Thank you.

I remember seeing that shape as a child and knowing I must have one. The slightly bent 08 is nice and I am happy I could grab them. Is 08 an uncommon shape in Stanwell history? The Stanwell name is "fanned out"

The 20 is such a classic Ivarsson shape, well done.

Very nice indeed.

Those old Stanwell's deserve more credit. Great designs great smokers.

Congrats. Nice score.
The 08 is an uncommon shape. It’s an old design. Both of my 08’s have the 1947 registration stamp.

Very interesting shape! The lure of history can be too much to overcome sometimes, that's for sure, especially if you remember that shape from your childhood.

fluff', thank you for recognizing the Iversson; I wouldn't have spotted it by designer otherwise, but I really like it. I have one of his Stanwell pot designs, though it was made in Italy.
