Stanwell

Stanwell was founded in 1942 with the production of beechwood pipes, as briar was unavailable during the war. From 1948, when the collaboration with Sixten Ivarsson began, the pipes were produced in briar. The prestige and volume of production continued to increase and in 1965 the factory moved to Borup, south of Copenhagen. In addition to the collaboration with Sixten Ivarsson, the company's good reputation was certainly helped by its collaboration with other renowned Danish pipe artists, who continue to design various models on its behalf. As a result, the current product range includes pipes designed by Bang (Ulf Noltensmeier/Per Hansen), Jess Chonowitsch, Tom Eltang, Poul llsted, Anne Julie and Poul Winsløw.
