Facts, not a grade. We do not score a pipe out of ten: a number would rank a restored pipe above an honest one, and restoration is exactly what this hobby prices down. Every line above is checkable by anyone holding the pipe. Lines marked Faridunhill standing declaration rest on our published, dated statement of shop practice (v1.0, 2026-07-29) — not on an inspection of this individual pipe. It is one document, in public, that you can hold us to.
The entry
This reference example is a Stanwell Royal Prince, shape 113, a smooth Canadian pipe. The Canadian shape is characterized by its elongated oval shank and round bowl, a classic form that emphasizes clean, elongated lines. This particular pipe is finished in a smooth stain that highlights the grain. The stampings on the shank identify it as a 'Royal Prince' line model from Stanwell, with the shape number 113 and the 'Made in Denmark' designation. The dating of this pipe is based on the owner's stated bracket of pre-2010 production. Stanwell pipes from this period, bearing the 'Made in Denmark' stamp, represent the brand's output before certain manufacturing changes occurred later in the company's timeline. The pipe is recorded as an estate piece, indicating prior use.
