England, 1979

In the beginning Dunhill created Bruyere. And several years (1910-1917) it was the single brand made by the company of a firm and dense Calabrian briar. And though pre WWII “bruyeres” were marked just by a letter “A” instead of model, the Bruyere series is the one of the oldest long-livers not only in the Dunhill family, but also among all pipes in general. Lightweight and graceful pot from 1979.

The pipe markings are “DUNHILL BRUYERE”, “21061”, “MADE IN \ ENGLAND 19”. The length is 14.3 cm, bowl’s hight is 3.1 cm. External and internal diameters of the bowl are 3.3 cm and 1.8 cm. The depth is 2.8 cm and this pipe weights 18 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter . The chamber has been protected with the break in coat.

England, 2003 The “Cumberland” series is relatively young in comparison to other lines – it was introduced in 1979 and named in honor of Cumberland Street – the street where production and warehouse capacities of the company existed comfortably for many years. But such brindle ebonite stems (“cumberland” stems – also a Dunhill’s invention!) make…

England, 1983 Year 1983. USSR has stuck in Afganistan. UK fights for Maldives.

USSR immediately bans all Pink Floyd discs. “Apple” gets a new top manager (Mr. Scully from Pepsi). Authors…

The grain is contrast and clear, the shape is traditional for Lane era…

England, 1988 One of the largest (Group size 5) Dunhill pipes of the oldest and most popular series and very successful “Diplomat” shape. The pipe was born in 1983, but looks very young and fresh and as for its age. Highly recommended!
