Measurements & Other Details

Stamping:
MOST STAMPING BUFFED OFF


Condition: 4/5 -- The stem and shank of this pipe have been opened up to 4.5mm. The nomenclature is all but buffed away. Also, the bowl may have been topped but I can not determine whether or not that is the case with absolute certainty, if it was topped it was done by an expert pipe repairman.

About This Pipe

When Per Hansen and Ulf Noltensmeier took over the helm at S. Bang in 1984, they changed the "C" in Copenhagen to a "K", thus this pipe can be dated pre 1984. While I would be hard pressed to classify this execution as a classic example of the Danish billiard, the shape has more than its share of intrigue and the cross cut/birdseye is superlative, though muted by the stain.
