English Estates: Dunhill Shell Briar (3135) (2013) (Unsmoked) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-002-31579
Seldom seen in Group 3 size, Dunhill's "35" shape seems to fuse the marque's "21" Zulu with the substance of one of their shorter, broad-bowled Dublin designs. It makes for an especially jaunty number, imbued with a languidly forward look in profile, along with a piece that should practically marry itself to the hand. This one comes to you in the black sandblast of the marque's classic Shell Briar finish. Presented unsmoked.
The Shell Briar's addition to the Dunhill catalog was a pivotal moment in pipe-smoking history. Before 1917, pipes with sandblasted finishes had never been made, and Alfred Dunhill's innovative mind created arguably the most popular finish for pipes today when he unveiled the Shell Briar. With its dark, reserved color palette and delightful texture, it's no surprise that it's still wildly popular over a century later.
