Brown sandblasted Dunhill Cumberland pipe, classic straight pagoda model number 4 with traditional ebonite Cumberland mouthpiece. Rating group 4. The pipe is very elegant and its flat bottom makes it very comfortable as it can be placed down without falling over. The pipe is medium in size and features a generous bowl for excellent smokeability in any situation; it is a classic and original Dunhill model. Its lightness makes it ideal for smoking while walking or sitting comfortably in an armchair. Its lightness is astonishing and it is very pleasant to hold, even when unlit. The low, wide bowl is ideal for flake tobaccos as it oxygenates them more, allowing you to appreciate every little nuance. The Cumberland was introduced in 1979. It is 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 polished. The sandblasting is very delicate, giving the pipe a 'soft' effect. The pipe was produced in 2018.
Alfred Dunhill opened his tobacco shop on Duke Street in 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. 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 but the best'.
