Danish Estates: Bijou Sandblasted Billiard (by Stanwell) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-001-38445
Founded by Poul Nielsen, the Stanwell marque was a trailblazer for Danish pipe-making as it found its place on the global stage. During World War II, with briar supplies low and English pipes in short supply, Poul Nielsen sought to meet the needs of Danish pipe smokers by fashioning his own from beechwood under his company, Kyringe. Once the war was over and briar supply lines recovered, Nielsen changed the company's name to Stanwell, and the company would go on to collaborate with Danish pipe-making legends such as Sixten Ivarsson, Jess Chonowitsch, and Tom Eltang. Made by Stanwell, this Billiard from Bijou showcases the refined, classically inclined shaping cues that the Danish marque would come to be known for. The bowl stands pert and upright, its walls reaching from the rounded heel toward the flat rim. Out back is an arrow-straight round shank paired to a tapering stem of jet-black vulcanite. Completing this pipe's timeless look is a crisp, inky sandblast that grants the stummel a rugged complexion.
