About the Item
This pipe is a fine example of the Dunhill Shell Briar line, distinguished by its deep sandblasted finish, which reveals the natural rugged character of the briar. The pipe is stamped “Dunhill Shell Briar”, along with the shape number 55S, a classic straight billiard, showcasing Dunhill’s mastery in balancing proportion and simplicity. The dual white dots on the stem, the brand’s unmistakable signature, emphasize its authenticity and prestige. The finish displays a rich, dark hue, typical of Dunhill’s Shell pipes, achieved through their meticulous oil curing process. The pipe bears the “Made in England” stamp, situating it within Dunhill’s long tradition of English craftsmanship.
A utilitarian yet elegant piece, this Dunhill Shell Briar embodies both resilience and refinement, appealing to collectors and smokers alike. Its tactile surface and refined engineering reflect the high standards that have made Dunhill one of the most sought-after names in pipe making.
