Stanwell 75

[Cotton1]

This beautiful pipe has recently came my way. I have spent the weekend getting to know it and doing my best to make it as shiny on the outside as it has made me feel on the inside.

An expert on pipes I most certainly am not. I don't know the exact year of make but am guessing 1960's.

I do know that I am happy to have this pipe and have enjoyed the weekend getting to know it but admit I can't wait to burn some leaf in it...the highest honor an aged pipe could have..to be admired and used for it's intended purpose.

I was going to wait for the first bowl, but may change my mind after I have Supper.

Many thanks @ashdigger !!

Stanwell pipes are great smokers so you will probably be very pleased with the results. Enjoy!

Stanwell shape 75, a freehand, slightly bent, oval stem & mouthpiece, designed by Sixten Ivarsson.

Smoking a Stanwell right now. I have more Danish made Stanwells than I can count, never had one that wasn't a good smoker!

Nice pipe, good sized. I just finished smoking a similar sized Stanwell myself. It’s dedicated to VA blends.
