DUNHILL Bruyere 914

October 16, 2016January 7, 2019

England, 1972

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 lightly smoked stylish bent Dunhill Bruyere pipe from 1972!

The pipe markings are “DUNHILL \ BRUYERE”, “914 F/T”, “MADE IN \ ENGLAND 12”, “(4)A”. The length is 10.0 cm (3.94″), bowl’s height is 4.7 cm (1.85″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.8 cm (1.5″), internal diameter is 2.1 cm (0.83″). The depth is 4.0 cm (1.57″) and is pipe weights 44 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem,no filter. The chamber is lightly smoked with a few small scratches made perhaps by a cleaning tool.

England, 1986 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. The pipes were made of Corsican briar, wonderful…

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!
