About This Pipe
Both Dunhill's "21" and "35" shapes are renditions of the classic Zulu, exhibiting forward-canted Dublin bowls and often fitted with slightly bent stems. Where they differ is most noticeable at the transition and heel: The "35" found here displays a more curving profile, lending prominence to the bowl and heel and decreasing its cant compared to that of the "21." This Group 4 iteration beautifully embodies flowing, dynamic elegance, as the shank and stem curl into the flaring bowl.
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."
