Stanwell Trio sandblasted black pipe, classic straight 32 bulldog model with black methacrylate mouthpiece. Trio Sandblasted rating. The pipe is very elegant and refined, with a classic Stanwell design. It has a beautiful traditional flame pattern that is dense across the entire bowl, enhanced by the fine sandblasting. The pipe is medium in size and stands out for its more than discreet bowl and excellent smokeability in any situation. Its lightness makes it ideal for smoking while walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. Ideal pipe for the warmer months as it heats the hand less. Excellent for walking, given its lower propensity for scratches and marks. The Stanwell Trio series is characterised by a triple band that gives the pipe a superior class. The pipes are machine-carved but hand-finished and always feature a beautiful flame pattern. Sometimes the flaming is not just beautiful but fabulous. It is available in both black sandblasted and smooth light brown polished finishes, to which is added the characteristic Scandinavian design. This detail of modifying classic models with the Scandinavian aesthetic philosophies typical of Danish Design is the reason why Danish pipes have become famous.
Stanwell was founded in 1942 with the production of beechwood pipes, as briar was not available 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. An interesting fact is that about two-thirds of those involved in production are women, which is noteworthy considering the small number of women who generally work in this field.
