English Estates: Dunhill Bruyere Christmas1992 (4102) (157 of 350) (1992) (With Case) Tobacco Pipe

While the shaping of this "02" bent Billiard personifies Dunhill's devotion to classic English styling, it's elevated and made rarer by a generous spigot mount of bright silver. The construction provides greater durability and break-down ease, while also contributing an intriguing contrast to the color palette. Dressed in the timeless Bruyere finish, this pipe was made to commemorate the Christmas of 1992, and is presented in sumptuous, book-shaped case.

The Bruyere was Alfred Dunhill's original finish upon launching his brand of premium pipes and smoking accessories and was the only Dunhill finish from 1910 until 1917. Even after the addition of other finishes, the Bruyere maintained a high level of popularity, becoming synonymous with what is thought of, even today, as the quintessential pipe. To achieve the iconic, ruby hue and saturation, a skilled craftsman painstakingly layers particular stains in a precise manner, then meticulously polishes the pipe to a high luster. The final result is, simply put, timeless.
