CHURCHWARDEN vs PORTABLE It is often a debate many pipe smoker enter into every time they walk into their local tobacconist. It is well know that the longer the stem, the bigger and thicker the bowl, the cooler the pipe will smoke. The problem being, that a 30cm pipe all though very effective cannot be carried in the pocket and as that anti smoking activist who had a go at you, passes in the street the temptation to accidentally poke them in the eye with burning embers can prove a little overwhelming. So, do you go small and convenient, large and restrictive or empty your wallet with the expense of two quality briar pipes? The Stanwell Hans Black & White pipe range are supplied with two stems. A longer stem for an evening with a book in your favourite armchair and a standard stem for general use.
Stanwell Black & White 404 The Stanwell Black and White 404 is an alternative half bent Zulu that has been squared off on the front and back of the bowl for a dramatic looking pipe. It is made even more dramatic with the contrasting dual white rings and stunning ivory effect tapered peg as the standard stem and a tapered Black semi Churchwarden stem. Both stems are made from the more popular Acrylic choice for long lasting without staining. We don't need to tell you that the finish is simply stunning. The matt black against the white embedded rings in the shank is simply stunning.
Unfiltered The 404 is designed specifically for those who like the full unrestricted draw and flavour from an unfiltered pipe.
