About This Pipe
Dunhill's "13" bent Apple varies across Group sizes, typically taking on stout, plump proportions in smaller Group sizes, whereas larger renditions often present towering, arcing curves much like a bent Egg. This Group 4-sized "13" adheres closely to Anglo-French tradition, featuring the shape's quintessentially plump bowl and a high-kicking shank-and-stem arrangement, which promotes comfortable jaw-hanging. Additionally, this "13" is dressed in the Cumberland finish, heightening the vintage charm.
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."
