A smooth burgundy-coloured Dunhill briar pipe, a straight yet ‘curved’ model, pot number 3106, with a traditional black ebonite mouthpiece. The pipe is very elegant, and its dark red colour gives it a refined look. It is a small pipe, distinguished by a discreet bowl that ensures excellent smokeability in any situation; it is a new straight model from Dunhill. Its lightness makes it ideal for a quick smoke, whether out for a walk or comfortably seated in an armchair. The design is new and whimsical, allowing the pipe to ‘slide’ to one side to keep your field of vision clear. Perfect for smoking whilst at the computer, in front of the television, whilst doing manual tasks, or simply because it’s fun and original. The Bruyère was introduced in 1910, marked with an ‘A’ signifying ‘best quality’ on the side of the bowl until 1975; until 1934, the bowl was marked ‘INNER TUBE’. It was the only finish available from 1910 to 1917 and the colour is the iconic very dark reddish hue. La Bruyere is considered the quintessential Dunhill. The pipe was produced in 2016. Condition Group 3.
