Description
Item & Condition: The Champ of Denmark pipe by Larsen & Stigart is a remarkable and highly collectable piece, featuring a generous chamber approximately one inch in diameter. The rim is fumed along with the end of the shank. This pipe showcases beautiful bird's eye grain and a clean appearance, with no tooth marks on the stem or button. The stem fits snugly into the pipe, indicating quality craftsmanship. Larsen & Stigart was a renowned Copenhagen pipe shop that has since closed. The shop sold pipes stamped with their name, including the Champ of Denmark line. These pipes were initially made by Karl Erik Ottendahl, a respected Danish pipe maker. Larsen & Stigart also employed in-house carvers, such as Søren Eric Andersen, for about a decade. The Champ of Denmark brand was one of Larsen & Stigart's notable lines, known for high-quality craftsmanship and beautiful grain patterns. These pipes were often characterized by their freehand designs and natural plateau tops. While i can't be sure this pipe is one of the earliest ones, the design and stamping suggests it is.

Accurate and Honest Description? Whatever happened to good ole USA customer service? I do my utmost to be accurate and honest with my descriptions. I research pipes sometimes for hours and reach out to professionals in the field to get accurate listings. At times, even I make mistakes, but they are honest mistakes and the customer is always right! I accept full refund (no partial refunds) returns with no questions asked. I would rather lose a sale than have someone dissatisfied because that is how I would like to be treated when I am buying pipes. Pipes at fair market price? 99% of my listings are auction starting at .99 so the market decides a price. Truly clean pipes ready to smoke? Many other sellers focus on the outside because it takes a lot of time to clean the inside and a shiny pipe sells! I spend hours cleaning the inside of your pipe for you with Everclear only (No bleach, Oxyclean, murphy's soap, or other harsh cleaners). I use a pipe retort, pipe cleaners and, if necessary (rarely), an ozone chamber to remove every last scent and ghost. This saves you time and money and you can confidently smoke your pipe as soon as you get it. Shipping Speed, Cost? I am proud of the fact that I can ship 95% of the time within an hour or two of you paying and ALWAYS within 24 hours! With the recent increase in packaging and shipping costs I have not raised my shipping prices and offer FREE shipping on additional pipes purchased in the same week (Domestic Orders Only). Not reduced but absolutely FREE! Secure Packaging? Who wants to buy a pipe just to have it arrive broken or damaged? Unless you PM me with a different preference I always separate the stem from the pipe and wrap it separate. I then place it in bubble wrap with the stummel and pack it in a BOX with filler. *Pipe stand and/or other props not included.
