DUNHILL Cumberland 3103

DUNHILL Cumberland 3103

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 the series one of the best sellers and an object of the highest attention of Dunhill admirers.

The pipe markings are “3103”, “(dunhill)”, “CUMBERLAND \ MADE IN ENGLAND 03”. The length is 13.2 cm (5.2″) and the bowl’s height is 4.5 cm (1.77″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.2 cm (1.26″), internal diameter is 1.9 cm (0.75″). The depth is 3.7 cm (1.46″) and this pipe weighs 31 gr. Briar, cumberland stem, no filter. The pipe was lightly smoked and very well preserved.
