📢 IMPORTANT NOTE ON STEM AUTHENTICITY FOR DISCERNING COLLECTORS 📢
To maintain absolute transparency:
The Dunhill briar stummel is 100% authentic with beautifully clear, crisp stamps.
However, the black composite stem is a well-crafted AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENT,
not a factory Dunhill piece. It features a custom bend, fits snugly in the mortise,
features a replicated white dot. Priced accordingly!
Up for sale is a gorgeous Dunhill "The White Spot" estate pipe in the highly sought-after 56 Bent Billiard shape.
This piece carries Dunhill's premium "Root Briar" designation, an exquisite high-grade smooth finish introduced in 1931 that utilizes top-tier briar blocks to showcase stunning natural grain patterns under a rich, light-golden contrast stain.
The 56 shape is a true Dunhill classic. It features a robust, deep bowl with a graceful, classic bend and a highly comfortable feel in the hand.
