DUNHILL Cumberland 5103

England, 1986

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 objects of a highest attention of Dunhill admirers.

The pipe markings are “5103”, “DUNHILL CUMBERLAND \ MADE IN ENGLAND 26”. The length is 15.5 cm (6.1″), bowl’s height is 5.0 cm (1.97″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.8 cm (1.5″), internal diameter is 2.0 cm (0.79″). The depth is 4.2 cm (1.65″) and this pipe weights 48 gr. Briar, cumberland stem, no filter.

By the…

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!

England, 1988 This quite moderately smoked middle size and the highest grade Dunhill apple from the 1980s hardly needs any detailed explanations – the pipe speak for itself! Should smoke perfect with strong and medium mixtures. Highly recommended!
