March 18, 2016January 15, 2019

England, 1976

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. A classical lightweight pot from 1976.

The pipe markings are”DUNHILL \ BRUYERE”, “416”, “MADE IN \ ENGLAND 16”. The length is 14.4 cm, bowl’s hight is 3.5 cm. External and internal diameters of the bowl are 3.4 cm and 1.8 cm. The depth is 2.8 cm and this pipe weights 36 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter .

England, 2002 Dunhill Dress pipes are relatively young; the series was introduced in 1973 and is distinguished by dark (in the most cases black) smooth finish. Despite dark stain hides natural briar grain the “Dress” pipes look luxury indeed!

England, 1935-52 This Dunhill pipe came to us with the noticeably chewed mouthpiece and very faint nomenclature, and of course it was hardly possible to make it clearer, the challenge was to save at least a few more or less visible symbols during the restoration. So you may need very bright light and a good…

England A wonderful cherrywood pipe from the Dunhill’s family! The brand Savory (Savory’s) was created in the 1885 and very soon was acquired by Dunhill.

USA, 1960-70s A quite moderately smoked legendary American Kaywoodie pipe made approximately in the 1960-70s. The pipe didn’t require too much efforts, it was rather a light cleanup than a restoration. Sincerely recommended for admirers of capacious chambers and American smoking tradition!

England, 1960s The pipe is really lightweight as for its dimensions. That’s reached by using of a very accurate and thin stem and by selection of good and lightweight sort of briar. Similar pipe made by someone else would be substantially heavier, but this one is just like a feather!
