Dunhill: Amber Root with Silver (5133) (2022) Tobacco Pipe

The "33" is Dunhill's take on the classic bent Brandy shape. While most of the English marque's standard shapes remain quite consistent in design, the "33" can vary slightly in its bowl's taper and the heel being either rounded or flattened. This particular example is the most common — the flattened heel offering a Volcano-like dispositon. Presented here in Group 5 size, the bowl is substantial in hand and generous of chamber, and a regal accent of sterling silver contrasts against the Amber Root's smoky stain.

One of Dunhill's more recent finishes, the Amber Root was introduced in 1995. Like the Root Briar, it showcases a smooth stain, accentuating the briar's natural grain in traditional style. Typically auburn-hued, the Amber Root is often a touch darker in color than that of the Root Briar, pairing handsomely with the jet-black stem for an aesthetic that combines the grain definition of the Root Briar finish with the darker, smokier tones of the Bruyere.
