Brown sandblasted Dunhill Cumberland pipe, classic straight Canadian model number 5109 with traditional ebonite Cumberland mouthpiece. Rating group 5. The pipe is very elegant and the long stem ensures a consistently fresh and dry smoke. The pipe is large and stands out for its bowl, which is capable of excellent smoking in any situation; it is a classic Dunhill model. Its lightness makes it ideal for smoking while walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. A classic that never tires and is always current. The Cumberland was introduced in 1979. Sandblasted brown with a mouthpiece (now called Cumberland) streaked with shades of brown, reddish and antique pink. The rim of the bowl is sometimes smooth, sometimes sandblasted. Originally, it was only smooth and shiny. The sandblasting is very delicate, giving the pipe a 'soft' effect. The pipe was produced in 2017.
Alfred Dunhill opened his tobacco shop in Duke Street, London, in 1983 and presented his first pipe in 1906. His intention was to create something that was useful and reliable, aesthetically beautiful: he wanted it to last over time and be the best of its kind. Dunhill pipes were soon considered among the best pipes in the world, and their success is still evident today. They are handmade with the finest materials, from briar to German ebonite, and with an almost obsessive meticulousness that guarantees a finished product that is perfect in every detail. The special oil treatment of the briar is the secret of their quality, carefully guarded and protected by patent. Dunhill models have become a benchmark in the world of pipes, recognised for their undisputed class, refinement and elegance. They are timeless models that continue to give enthusiasts great satisfaction today, just as they did in the past. Dunhill boasts many admirers and collectors around the world who appreciate its drier taste, which mainly enhances the EM models. There are two finishes, sandblasted and smooth, available in various categories depending on details such as colour or grain. They are graded from 1 to 6 according to their size, with 1 being the smallest and 6 the largest.
If, after more than a century, Dunhill is still one of the most sought-after and beloved pipes, it is perhaps due to Alfred's motto, which is still applied today in production: 'Nothing less than the best'.
