Dunhill: County (4135) (2019) Tobacco Pipe

Featuring a tapering, forward-canted bowl atop a firm heel, this "35" bent Dublin from Dunhill is a compact, handy pipe. The proud bowl and elongated, thick transition is followed by a gently rising shank and downturned stem similar to that of the Zulu shape, lending a seamless elegance to the profile. The warm, rustic County finish showcases lovely grain patterns across the bowl, while the smooth rim is peppered with handsome birdseye.

Like the Cumberland finish, Dunhill's County line pairs rich, cumberland stems with delightfully textured sandblasts. Typically, County pieces wear a lighter stain, often falling between the Cumberland and Tanshell hues, and since its introduction in 1986, with only a brief hiatus, the County remains stalwart within Dunhill's portfolio, especially desired by lovers of brindled vulcanite and warm sandblasts.
