England, 1996

The pipe is relatively young in comparison to other pipes, which we offer. It was made in 1996 and has been quite moderately smoked, so it needed rather a refresh than a restoration. We would like also to draw your attention to the really comfortable size (the middle range Group size 4 is perfect for English and oriental mixtures) and very practical shape: billiards are always the best pipes in terms of easy smoking and maintaining (cleaning), but a sitter billiard is undoubtedly the highly comfortable smoker!

The pipe marking is “4110”, “(dunhill)” “SHELL BRIAR \ MADE IN ENGLAND 36”. The length is 13.9 cm (5.47″), bowl’s height is 4.4 cm (1.73″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.6 cm (1.42″), internal diameter is 1.9 cm (0.75″). The depth is 3.8 cm (1.5″) and this pipe weights 40 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. So you may need very bright light and a good…
