English Estates: Dunhill Tanshell (W60) (T) (1962) Tobacco Pipe

It's not everyday you come across a Dunhill Whangee, the marque's classic bamboo-shanked pipe. Though originally incorporated into Dunhill's lineup several decades back, when briar was in short supply, these eccentric designs caught on, and many collectors have even built entire rotations around them. You will occasionally find one on the estate market, as we do here, but they tend to sell quickly, especially if it is an older example like this '62 edition — in part due to their general rarity, but also because of their overall unique aesthetic. You can't find classic English designs fitted with oversized bamboo extensions everywhere, after all. Great condition here on this Tanshell example.
