PARKER Super Bruyere 5040
England, 1957-67
An elegant lightweight Parker pensil shank pipe produced between 1957 and 1967, prior to the company’s merger with Hardcastle Pipe Ltd. This was a period when Parker successfully combined Dunhill’s resources and production facilities with its own unique approach to carving, shaping, finishing, and marketing. As a result, both experienced pipe collectors and refined smokers highly value these “Parkers”.
