Dunhill: Shell Briar (2407) (2021) Tobacco Pipe

This unique take on the classic Prince shape from Dunhill combines features of a Rhodesian with the configuration of the English marque's more standard "07." Featuring a plump bowl punctuated by slim beadlines and a rounded rim taper, the chamber within is broad, allowing for a flavorful smoke. The slim Prince shank tapers to a bent vulcanite stem for a light pipe that's easy to smoke on the go.

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.
