==== Pipe of the Year models ====
Each year since 1979, Stanwell has released a 'Pipe of the Year,' often designed by a notable figure in Danish pipe-making. It appears, however, that, at times, Stanwell has released two completely different pipes for a given year - one drilled to accommodate 9mm filters, and one with a standard bore.

More recently, Stanwell has also released seasonal 'Christmas' pipes.

==== Christmas pipes ====
For a time, Stanwell also released seasonal 'Christmas' pipes, some of which are recorded here:
* Christmas 2001. Quarter-bent Dublin with a bead-line on the rim, triangular shank, two silver bands and a saddle stem.
* Christmas 2001. Bent Dublin with an acrylic ferrule, a silver band and half-saddle stem.
* Christmas 2008. Bent volcano with a flush flared stem.
* Christmas 2009. Bent squat tomato with an acrylic ferrule and a saddle stem.
==== Championship pipes ====
Stanwell supplies several slow-smoking championships across Scandinavia with pipes for these occasions. These pipes do not have shape codes, but can be identified by a st'amp for the year of production and for the event they were made for, such as 'DM' for the Danish championship (Danish: ''Danmarks mesterskab''), 'NM' for the Norwegian, and so on. Stanwell often uses existing models for these championship pipes, but there have been occasions when a famous pipe maker has created a design especially for the occasion, such as the 1998 ''Danmarks mesterskab'' pipe, designed by [[Benner|Bent Nielsen]].
