Stanwell Authentic Pipes

Great pipe! Wasn't sure about the price, but it has been quite some time since I added a new pipe to my collection. Due to health issues I put my pipes away and then recently I decided to get them out and wanted a new pipe to add. Saw this and on a whim, it was my first purchase from P&C. Great service and the pipe arrived as expected. After a dozen bowls the pipe is darkening beautifully. It has become one of my favorites! Thank you P&C and I will be placing more orders!

Smokes excellent. Beautiful pipe.

Smokes cool. Beautiful pipe. Very Happy

This is a nice small pipe for that quick smoke. The natural finish is coloring nicely with use. Extremely light weight. If you are looking for a small pipe, I can recommend this one.

Great quality pipe and I usually stain it myself, but you don't have to, it's beautiful in its own natural form. . .also sells at a good price.

Nice pipe! It smokes very well!

I bought this pipe as soon as I saw it. It is a great alternative to all my stained pipes. It smokes well, and has gone to the top of my list as a favorite pipe.

Just got it. Looks beautiful.

It’s a good smoker. Definitely recommend one or a few of these pipes. I will be getting more.

Great Smoker at Great price

Looks cool, smokes great. Only complaint is it had a tiny split at the top of the bowl. I don't think it will be a big problem, seems to be purely cosmetic. Otherwise I’ve enjoyed it thoroughly.

Great smoke cool and hearty. I love the natural briar and is a good pipe for my evenings. Cant wait to see how it changes and i bet i love it more in years to come.

A fine looking, cool smoking pipe.

This is a fine looking find smoking pipe. I’m so glad i chose this style and type. Very happy

Authentic 32 is well built pipe. perfectly drilled smoke chamber good looks and smokes great . Stanwell pipes are always a safe bet.

Bare wood break-in a little harsh. Other than that great.

Bought 4 pipes in the past few months and best of them.

Nice draw and shape too this pipe.I love it!!

Perfect pipe for me. Smooth and sophisticated

This pipe is very comfortable in-hand. The feelings very rich and smooth. The depth of the bowl allows for a lingering smoke, and relaxation all around

Great Pipe. Just had a few puffs and it's already getting a great color. It's very smooth to touch and I had no gurgling, even with a robust tobacco.

Good quality .... Smokes very well ... Goog wood grain.

I like the smoke. It’s also good looking, feels good in the hand and has a good sized bowl. I plan on buying another #63.

EXCELLENT WORKING PIPE

Great quality and couldn't beat the price.

A LOT OF TIMES YOU GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR BUT THIS PIPE FAR EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS, SMOOTH AND STURDY

I first bought a Stanwell 63 back in 1974 when wandering into a tobacconist in Kendal, UK. I loved the shape, and I smoked it daily and so forth. It lasted until a few years ago when I had to retire it. A few years ago, shape 63 didn't seem available, and then all of a sudden Pipes & Cigars began carrying a number of them. While it's possible now to have 63 in any number of finishes, I do enjoy starting from raw briar for two reasons. First, I feel that the pipe itself "breathes" easier, allowing a cooler smoke. Second, seeing how the pipe colors over time gives a feeling of deep satisfaction. Even after a year, a raw 63 can have as much coloration as any stained pipe, but there's the joy of doing it yourself. I wound up buying three of them. Why risk having anything happen? I believe that Stanwell has discontinued the line, so what is available now is what there is.

What can I say? Just bought my third one.... Great pipe, great value. Love the way it darkens over time much like meerschaum. Also smokes cool and dry.

Well made with balanced shape. Several of my pipes are unfinished/natural and love the way the briar changes color and tone over time as it is being used. I bought the 29 as a follow up purchase to getting the 107. I didn't realize how small the 107 was (it's the same shape as the 29) but as the price was great and figured may as well splurge and have 2. The 107 is working out just as well. A third Stanwell Authentic is surely in my future!

The Authentics seem nice pipes for the price. Only problem was I didn't realize the Authentic 107 was such a tiny pipe. Never thought it was not a normal size. Should have ordered the Authentic 29. Well, it's breaking in nicely and will use as a novelty smoke.

It's a magnificent pipe and a joy to smoke, as well as being aesthetically pleasing.

Excellent! I like it so much! Like it and enjoy it!

The Stanwell Authentic is one of those rare finds that one wants to just keep in rotation constantly. The only way keep from doing that is to buy several. Each one I have shows a different grain and the color change is more pronounced with blends higher in Perique, Latikia and Virginias. The problem --PIPES AND CIGARS won't keep these at a decent inventory level so there's little hope we'll ever have the opportunity to buy them again. More's the pity, these are great pipes at reasonab!e price points.

Good Brier, easy carbon build up and is developing a nice color. It's going to be a good pipe. Well done Stanwell.

Smokes great, of course. I immediately applied some Decatur Pipe Wax (available here) and it got a pleasing color to it.

Ruggedly stout, well-balanced, and with AAA grain for an unfinished briar. Excellent buy!

Already beginning to ripen. The caramel tones, though faint, are starting on the bowl to blush. I have returned to smoking a pipe after decades of being locked in a smoke free environment. I have yet to find a sweet aromatic blend, with a nutty vanilla presence, that I so loved. This pipe would make a perfect fit.

Very nice pipe - had just started to take on a nice oil finish when it was stolen off of my table in a restaurant we were at. Will buy another when i have the funds.

Great first pipe!!! I recently bought a Stamwell Authentic 83 to my husband and he love it. I just need to know if it use filters and if it do, what size? Thanks

One could spend more but why? Quality control at Stanwell must be perfect as the pipe I received had only one very minor blemish. Smoking characteristics are flawless.

IT'S A GREAT PIPE. SMOKES VERY WLL AND DRY.

bought 2 of these 2 years ago. Fast stain and polish and you're good to go. Actually GREAT value. Buy a few. You'll be surprised how good they are.

I've been waiting years for a pipe like this, a totally natural bowl with no finish. I think it allows the pipe to "breathe" better and be easier to clean. If it ever gets really unpleasant due to tars I have the idea of soaking the bowl in a neutral spirit and then dry out to sweeten it which can't be done with a typical finished bowl of coarse. It's light weight and the acrylic mouthpiece is very good with the bit not uncomfortably thick as many are. Smokes very dry and cool. Being a totally natural pipe I reserve it for my more natural English blends. This pipe is even better than the pipes I've paid three times as much for. I can't wait to get more.

Ugh

Smokes well. I enjoy watching the color change.

I love it! It can't be more perfect in size and weight and it smokes great too!

It's a smooth smoking pipe.

I have a model #63 circa 1980 that still serves me fine but I couldn’t resist getting another plateau briar 63 in natural without stain or polish.
