Dunhill: Cumberland (4905) (2022) Tobacco Pipe

Dunhill's "05" Dublin, here fitted with an abbreviated cumberland saddle stem, is a robust Nosewarmer, placing a generously chambered, Group 4 bowl at the fore of a diminutive shank-and-stem combination, offering a handy pipe offered here in Dunhill's rugged Cumberland finish.

When Alfred Dunhill released his patented Shell Briar, he forever changed the pipe-smoking world at large. Dunhill has often been credited with being the first to offer sandblasted pipes (arguably the most popular finish today), and the Cumberland finish further displayed Dunhill's innovative spirit. Well received after its release in 1979, the Cumberland series was named for the English marque's warehouse on Cumberland road, and the line's signature, brindled vulcanite stem became so iconic, the warmly striated material is now referred to simply as "cumberland."
