A Highly Collectible 1960s Registration Era Danish Classic with Striking Triangular Geometry & Horn Accents
For serious collectors of Danish mid-century design, this Stanwell Brazilia Shape 19 is an absolute standout. Penned for the company by the grandfather of modern pipemaking, Sixten Ivarsson, this rare Registration Era piece dates cleanly between 1948 and 1970—offering an authentic slice of Danish pipe history that doubles as a magnificent daily companion.
The Ivarsson Geometry & Lines The Shape 19 is one of Ivarsson’s most celebrated geometric triumphs for Stanwell. The bowl features a distinct, aerodynamic rim profile reminiscent of a soft shield or guitar pick, accented by an organic, beautifully rounded crowned rim. In profile, the bowl flares outward like a classic Dublin before tapering down into a subtle, muscular protruding "foot" at the base of the heel. Dressed in the rich, deep walnut-contrast stain of the Brazilia line and fitted with an elegant horn extension, the stummel boasts an exceptional display of tight flame grain climbing the front panel, balanced by dense clusters of birdseye on the flanks. The classic vulcanite saddle stem features a soft, sweeping bend that makes this avant-garde sculpture float effortlessly in the jaw.
Curation & Condition Notes:
Condition: Fully restored and presented in Excellent condition. The stummel is structurally rock-solid with a clean chamber. The crowned rim has been meticulously refinished to a smooth, clean luster, highlighting the gorgeous natural briar without any darkening or char.
Stem: The deep black vulcanite stem is polished chatter-free. The iconic crowned "S" stem stamp has been beautifully restored, standing out crisp, bright, and sharp against the vulcanite.
Nomenclature: Stamped with superb historical clarity on the smooth shank under-panels: Features the highly coveted STANWELL over REGD. No. 969-48, alongside BRAZILIA and the crisp shape code 19.
Since everyone has their own preferred methods to clean and sterilise internals of the shank and stem, we have intentionally not done this.
