England, 1950-70s A pleasant example of the pipe carvers art from the Sasieni – one of the most aggressive and active competitors of Dunhill for many years. The family business successfully worked till 1979 – until the recession of demand in pipes forced to sell the business to new investors, and interest in Sasieni among…
England, 1950-70s A nice example of the incomparable and legendary rustication from Sasieni – one of the most aggressive and active competitors of Dunhill for many years. The family business successfully worked till 1979 – until the recession of demand in pipes forced to sell the business to new investors, and interest in Sasieni among…

England, 1950-70s This is perhaps one of the most recognized, respected and collected GBD shapes – the heavy bowled 9438 rhodesian! A very nice sample with an exciting grain and contrast made before 1980 (before acquisition by Cadogan). Sincerely recommended! Great finding!
England, 1960s A high grade Charatan’s pipe of “the second Lane era” (1965-76), the period of the brightest blossoming of this brand, delightful shapes and grains, which eclipsed all others pipe makers including Dunhill. Fantastic straight grain!
England The dream has come true! For quite a long time we have been seeking for a meerschaum pipe made by our favorite John Redman factory in London in the middle of the XX century. It was perhaps the last substantial gap in our collection. Finally it’s here! A full bent moderately and very accurately…
England, 1970s Red Bark is perhaps the best-known and valued Dunhill series among other “retired”. The Red Bark pipes were produced not for a long time – from 1972 to 1987, and in fact, they are traditional sandblasted Dunhills, but smokers and collectors are still attracted by these pipes and their unusual staining. By the…
England, 1978 The sandblast finish is considered to be invented by Dunhill, at least this fact was confirmed with patents of 1917 – in Great Britain and 1920 – in the USA. From the very beginning Algerian briar was used for blasted pipes as it was much softer and provided deeper and more attractive finish….
England From the first look the pipe reminds Comoy’s creatures – well selected briar with a wonderful almost perfect straight grain and typical for Comoy’s contrast staining. And this impression seems to be reasonable – the pipe was made by Cadogan Investments – the company, which obtained not only Comoy’s brand name, but materials, technologies…
England, 1969 That’s a very rare sample of the Dunhill Shell Briar pipes stamped with a letter shape code instead of a number. Such codes were used at times prior to 1976 (according to Pipephil) and the shape “P” corresponds to “1/2 bent bulldog”. A unique collector’s finding!
