April 29, 2018December 21, 2018

England, 1996

This 1996 Dunhil Shell Briar pipe is one of the youngest pipes in our collection. Nevertheless Dunhill is allways Dunhill, stable quality and successful marketing made the company name iconic among pipes smokers around the Globe. Therefore no further explanations are necessary. The pipe didn’t need too much efforts, it was rather a light cleanup than a restoration. Recommended!

The pipe markings are “3110”, “(dunhill)”, “SHELL BRIAR \ MADE IN ENGLAND 36”. The length is 13.8 cm (5.43″), bowl’s height is 4.2 cm (1.65″).
