This is the production Brand of Hans Jonny "[[Former]]" Nielsen. When the U. S. pipe demand for quality handmade "freehand" pipes diminished, [[W.Ø. Larsen]] in Copenhagen sent their several workshop pipemakers home to work out of their house. Former who was the Larsen foreman at the time, eventually went to Germany and started the [[Bentley]] line of production pipes made on frasing machines, several at a time. Some years ago he returned to Denmark with this type of equipment and continues to make these production pipes in his current workshop in between making his famous handmade pipes. | |||
Bentley could also be a name of a line of [[Kaywoodie]] seconds. | |||
