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!

The pipe marking is “DUNHILL \ BRUYERE”, “5128”, “”MADE IN \ ENGLAND 28”. The length is 15.0 cm (5.9″), bowl’s height is 3.6 cm (1.42″). External diameter of the bowl is 4.7 cm (1.85″), internal diameter is 2.1 cm (0.83″). The depth is 2.9 cm (1.14″) and this pipe weights 53 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

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.

England, 1960s Unlike other competitors Dunhill’s approach to shapes and grades was pedantic and systematic indeed. Pipe smokers want variety. Which variety can we offer when all pipes are with the same white dot? First of all, a size (Group size from 1 till 6). Then a modification of a stem: tapered (0) or saddle…

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, 1978 Initially Dunhill didn’t pay any special attention to a grain of briar. Perhaps, the public opinion had not been ready yet to a “straight grain” and material of early Bruyere pipes didn’t differ by a remarkable grain. But in 1931 Root Briar series was started.
