DUNHILL Bruyere 333

February 27, 2016January 19, 2019

England, 1960s

First of all, this is the Dunhill pipe, no need to perform long explanations. Secondly, it has a very popular, respected and cool smoked canadian shape. Thirdly, it has no year suffix what is very rare for the post WWII Dunhill pipes, experts say it is the 1960 Dunhill most probably. And fourthly, the pipe comes with an original Dunhill box, which sadly is not in a perfect condition after 55 years storage (a little bit squashed), but makes the pipe even more valuable and collectable.

The pipe markings are “DUNHILL BRUYERE”, “333 F/T”, “MADE IN \ ENGLAND”, “(3) A”. The length is 13.8 cm (5.43″), bowl’s height is 3.8 cm (1.5″). External and internal diameters of the bowl are 3.1 cm (1.22″) and 1.8 cm (0.71″). The depth is 3.4 cm (1.34″) and this pipe weights 22 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The chamber has been protected with the break-in coat.

England, 1960s High titles, academic degrees, diplomas and medals are not necessary indicators of value and quality. Of course, it would be wrong to ignore all regalia too. But both people and pipes should be evaluated not only by clothes and marks.

England, 2002 Even if Dunhill didn’t obtain a patent for usage of brindle ebonite for stems, their input in promoting of a new material and invention of a suitable and well memorable name for it is undoubted.
