Spurred on by a recent thread on Stanwell pipes I've decided to take out 2 of my Anne Julie designed canted eggs, Shape 35b.
Possibly my favourite Danish pipe shape.

This 2nd pipe is a Stanwell "Danish Natural" Shape 35b
Both this and the previous pipe are both stamped "Made in Denmark"
There is a plethora of Stanwell lines and seconds - I have absolutely no idea of their heirachy.
This "Danish Natural" has pretty "meh" grain.
The previous "Danish Souvereign", a second line, has pretty nice sandblast, and in my opinion, is the nicer of the two.

Having a bowl of MacBaren:Mixture Scottish Blend

Now smoking Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am a third of the way through this bowl of year 2017 Esoterica Dorchester in a straight smooth brown 1920s KBB Rocky Briar 1582 patent no.298978 with a B in a circle bulldog with a tapered black vulcanite stem.
