STANWELL HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN 2005 COMMEMORATIVE LIMITED SERIES.

Today you are bidding on a beautiful pipe crafted in Denmark. The pipe has been previously smoked, so it may have some  minor signs of use, but is in excellent condition. Be aware that small colour deviation is possible due to flash lighting.

 

PIPE CONDITION:

This beautiful briar pipe has been carefully smoked and cared for. The rim is nice and clean. Beautiful massive ring of brass and stainless steel adds to the overall artistic design to this classic cutty shape pipe. Acrylic stem  has slight teeth chatter, hardly visible with the naked eye. Wide fishtail mouthpiece. 9 milimeter filter. 

The pipe presents beautiful cross grain on front and rear of the bowl with nice birdseyes to the sides. Beautiful chestnut stain highlights the detail.

A MASTERPIECE, COMMEMORATING THE BIRTH OF A LEGEND.
