English Estates: Dunhill Amber Root (3135) (2015) Tobacco Pipe

Seemingly a mix of both Zulu and Dublin, this "35" piece from Dunhill is rendered in Group 3 size, with its jaunty, forward inclined bowl paired to a shank-and-stem arrangement that displays a slight, upward curl before the mouthpiece is sharply downturned at the bit. A handsome rendering, this pipe is dressed in Dunhill's Amber Root finish.

One of Dunhill's more recent finishes, the Amber Root was introduced in 1995. Like the Root Briar, it showcases a smooth stain, accentuating the briar's natural grain in traditional style. Typically auburn-hued, the Amber Root is often a touch darker in color than that of the Root Briar, pairing handsomely with the jet-black stem for an aesthetic that combines the grain definition of the Root Briar finish with the darker, smokier tones of the Bruyere.
