About This Pipe

The Dunhill Root Briar "DR" pipe represents a "cut above", within a company where "a cut above" is already the norm. Prior to the introduction of the Root Briar stain in 1930, unfinished pipes that presented exceptional grain were given the Bruyere stain. Considering the relative opacity of the two stains, choosing the blond of the Root Briar was utterly logical. Beautiful of bowl, and ranging in size between a large Group 5 and a small Group 6, this marvelously vertical egg features the fine grain that one would expect to find in this rarefied series, as well as the unexpected surprise of sterling silver. An extraordinary pipe from an extraordinary company.
