Bjarne pipe ID help

PCR · 02-14-2015, 05:20 PM

I have this very nice Bjarne pipe, anyone here help with age/model, etc... It's a bent bulldog and that's about all I know. I don't think it's a Viking. Thanks all!

Maybe Mogens Johansen's pieces? Smoked a bit of Cyprian mixture in it today, perfect draw.

Definately a Bjarne with the logo "BJ" on the stem. I do not see it as a bulldog though. I'm thinking more "apple" due to the roundness of the bowl. If the two circles were further up and the bowl took on more of a slight "V" shape, then I would say "bulldog." Looking at the very slight bulge in the middle, you could possibly push it in the direction of a "Rhodesian."

But, I'm thinking more "apple" Bjarne Nielsen.

Other than the "BJ" on the stem, were there any other "marks" or "stamps" observed in or around the shank areas?

Doesn't a Rhodesian have a round shank?

Round shank = Rhodesian was my first thought. Bulldog/apple...? Stamped on the bottom across the square shanke is "Bjarne Handmade in Denmark"

Well, age and/or model I can't help you with Paul, but I can say it is a beautiful looking pipe and I hope you get years of enjoyment from it

Thank you Mark, if the first bowl out of her is any indication, indeed many years of enjoyment coming.
