  Stanwell History at Smoking Pipes .com
Stanwell revolutionized the pipe world with his new factory; until its debut, very few pipes were exported from Denmark.
It was the Stanwell factory that first began mass exportation of Danish pipes and first whetted the appetites of Americans and Germans for the Danish pipe.
Essentially the goal of Stanwell is, and always has been, to produce high quality pipes at a price that is truly within the reach of the common man. In this they have succeeded admirably, offering perhaps more pipe for the money than any other pipe manufacturer in their price range.
