English Estates: Dunhill Collector Smooth Bent Dublin (1986) (Aftermarket Band) Tobacco Pipe

While famous for their traditional shaping standards, Dunhill's Collector series showcases the English marque in rare form, with the line consisting of more experimental hand-turned shapes. Dated to 1986, this bent Dublin from Dunhill features a bowl-centric figure, a trait more commonly seen in Italian pipe-making. The bowl stands tall at a forward cant, its thick walls flaring high from a flattened heel toward a craggy, plateaued rim. An upturned shank transitions from the bowl, punctuated with a stylish metal accent band, and it meets a smartly bent saddle stem of jet-black vulcanite. The stummel wears a warm hazelnut stain highlighting striking vertical grain across the left flank.

Note: This pipe has been fitted with an aftermarket band that repairs a crack in the shank, and the price has been adjusted accordingly.
