This exceptional Dunhill Shell Briar 4103 dates to approximately 1965, identifiable by the classic Patent stamp on the shank. The Shell finish is one of Dunhill's most sought-after surface treatments, providing outstanding heat dissipation and a tactile grip unlike any other pipe in the classic British tradition.
The bowl is in excellent original condition with a light cake already broken in. The vulcanite stem is free from oxidation and retains its original luster. All hallmarks and stampings are crisp and clear. The original Dunhill zipper case is included and shows minimal wear.
This is a true collector's piece that is equally rewarding to smoke as it is to display. The Group 4 sizing offers a generous bowl capacity suitable for longer sessions with flake or ribbon cut tobaccos.
