Always interested to watch your channel. I recently bought a Stanwell shape 34 from Smokingpipes estate offerings, one of the Sixten designs. I must say it is a delightful pipe & much underrated in the market. The one I have is rusticated & marked hand made, & although I had no need of another pipe I find I am smoking it a lot. It is small, sits in the hand & mouth perfectly & I'm amazed it is still possible to find them at reasonable prices. Long may this continue. Regards, Chris
Chris Bundy I could not agree more. They are underrated and undervalued especially on the estate market. Consider what a Sixten branded pipe will cost you today.
The Canadian shown in this video is not shape no. 75 but shape no. 51. No. 75 is a rather short pipe with an oval shank, an oval, slightly bent stem and a rounded rim. The cipher before the shape no. was used on the older pipes and indicated the category, f. i. nos. 7, 8 and 9 were sandblast pipes.
Thanks for the information,Gorgeous pipes Stawells are always been popular here,I also have them few newer and current production including two flame grains Lovat and Liverpool shapes, lately been into Gbd's and BBB brands,and coming to realization after having bought few refurbished ones, lately English era production pipes they seem to been increased in their price ,never seen this 72 shape extra long Stanwell canadian(big fan of Canadian-Lumberman shapes I am)Best Greets,see You later again, Paul
Mr. Bare, thank you for your videos, for deepening my interest in both Stanwell pipes and my interest in pipe maintenance and restoration. You are putting out fantastic videos. This was the first video of yours I watched. I liked it so much, I actually went back to video #1 and have watched them up to this video again! Very very helpful information. Take care, and keep the videos coming!
Hello Bare pipe. I enjoyed this video. I have a Stanwell Vario with the military mount. What do you know about this kind of pipe? Is it a sixten design?
I'm a little confused about your 35M. I thought that was an Anne Julie design. I did a bit of research, and found there are 2 different # 35's out there. One is an Anne Julie, and the other is a Sixten Ivarsson. The 2nd design is very much like the Peewit designed by Sixten. Estate pipes like your 35 have been listed on Smokingpipes as both A.J. and S.I. so my confusion is deepened.
The Stanwell no. 35 shown in the very interesting video was designed by Anne Julie around 1970-1971. I have two of the original design with reg. no.; the Military mount was not part of the original design. I too collect Sixten Ivarsson-designed Stanwells, beautiful pipes and I collect other Stanwells as well, primarily from the 1950s and 1960s.
@@jespernielsen8549 I think a 50's #10 would really round out my collection. Do you know of anybody that has one for sale? Thanks for the confirmation on the 35.
@@Dan-in-the-Wild I'm sorry for the very late reply. I haven't come across the pipe you're looking for; in fact I'm looking for it myself, but so far, no luck. It has to be out there, so happy hunting.
mjarail no, it makes no difference to my smoking experience. The geometry of the bowl, draft hole and stem is far more important in terms of the taste it delivers. But it sure does look amazing!
Hello sir, I've got a pipe. I really don't know to much about it, maybe you can help me out, it's a Stanwell. It says regd. No 969-48. Hand made in Denmark, selected Briar 71. I found it in a thrift store for 10$. Do you know anything about it, if you have some spare time please answer. Have a beautiful day. Oh, it has straight grain on it. Erik
Looks like the 71 shape was designed by Sixteen Ivarsson. The registration number can date it in the 1949-1970 range. It's worth every cent you paid, and is collectible. Hope this helps!
@@Dan-in-the-Wild hello fellow pipe smoker, I really appreciate your help. It really is a beautiful pipe and it's in my rotation of favorite pipes, knowing the history behind it makes it even better! Have a great weekend!
