Given both French and English origin of the Chadhall pipes, this brand seems
to be an import label possibly of a US distributor.
Chadhall pipes of French origin are obviously crafted by the same maker as Bayard, Omega, Thomas and Duke
of Kent pipes.
▲ Champ
of Denmark
Some pipes stamped with this label were distributed by Larsen & Stigart,
a famous tobacconist in Copenhagen (closed). The warehouse had a workshop
in which pipe carvers as famous as Søren Eric Andersen stayed
a time. As a matter of fact Karl Erik Ottendahl was not
the only contributor to this label.

Pipe and stand seem to have been manufactured for 1933 Chicago World's
