About This Pipe
A classic shape despite being rarely seen, the oval-shanked Diplomat remains a favorite among collectors of traditional English pipes. This "28" from Dunhill is an archetypal, timeless rendition that's rendered in Group 5 size. Sturdily proportioned, yet smoothly graceful, it offers chamber proportions similar to those of a Pot and its charming, broad base lends it a voluptuous feel in hand.
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."
