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.
This Denicotea De Luxe 791 is a long, smooth straight pot with a black vulcanite tapered stem and a fishtail bit. Farid records a 9mm filter fitting and describes it as pre-smoked in very good condition. The photographs show brown wood grain across the bowl and shank.
The broad pot bowl has a relatively low profile: its recorded height and outside width are both 41mm. A long straight shank and tapered mouthpiece extend the overall length to 170mm. The stem meets the shank directly, keeping the outline simple and continuous. The photographs also show the chamber opening and the detached stem and fitting.
The matching saved Denicotea cabinet records the company's founding by Willy Heineberg in Cologne in 1932 and its association with filters and smoking accessories. That company context does not date this individual pipe or identify the manufacturer of its bowl.
THE MARKS The close-ups document the Denicotea name, DE LUXE, the number 791 and KROCKET wording. Farid's full intake transcription is Denicotea Deluxe 791 Krocketbruyere extra. Reflections soften portions of the longer stamp in the photograph. No production year is assigned.

This record is append-only. Nothing is deleted — a correction is a new entry that supersedes the old one, and both stay visible.
Nobody leaves empty-handed. If you hold the catalogue page, the dated advertisement, or a hallmarked sibling that closes one of these — or simply own this model and can measure yours — send it in. Contributions are checked, credited to you by name, and the record is updated with the date it changed.
Faridunhill shop post, 2026-11-09. Published to a third-party platform on that date and archived since — a timestamp we cannot move. It is evidence that this object existed and looked like this, then.
The photographs are the identity. 12 images of this pipe's grain, stamping and stem are held as its fingerprint. The handle above is only a handle: lose it, and the pipe can still be matched back to this record from its grain.
