Finally found my birth year Stanwell: 1988 poty.

Winslow Crown.

 

[CallMeSangy]

My first well made briar and probably the largest bowl I've owned thus far. I'm not a hunter, but it just looked too good to pass up. Wanted to get a peterson at first, but I do not regret this purchase.

Finally got my first Former: a rusticated apple!

I am late to the party, but you are welcome (ref: unsmoked Queen). Where did you go @dmcmtk?

Thank you Mike Bay for carving the block that created this pipe. My first Lovat, a shape I've been wanting for a while but have been waiting for the right one to come along, this was the week.

He's creeped his way onto my list of pipes I'd like to own as well. Great looking pipes coming from him.

 

[Uruss]

a little late, but I ordered these two pipes for me and my Dad for Father's Day:

Eltang Basics with my two kids' name etched on the bottom of both. huge shoutout to Tom and Pia for making this happen.

 

[Briar Lee]

Bari was a value priced Danish brand, and this Bari Special Hand Cut 7200 is one of my favorite large pipes.

I bought this new and unsmoked from eBay a few years ago for $40 delivered, and like other Danes this pipe was pure torture to break in, and I feared it might burn it out. But after a couple of dozen bowls it began to form a cake, and now smokes cool and sweet with any blend.

What I like the most about Danish pipes is when I see the raw briar on top and on the end of the shank with straight grain radiating out, that means the maker had to use a huge plateaux of ancient age to make it.

Bari also hand cut their highly styled stems, for a nice custom touch.

Been trying to snag a Former Apple for a while and got lucky thru SPs Pipe Drop today. Most of his Apples have smooth rims and i liked how the gnarled rustication was used on rim too:
