This Dunhill Shell Briar 51011 is a classic bent billiard from Dunhill’s prestigious English workshop, produced in 1978, as indicated by the “Made in England 18” stamp. The 51011 shape—a long-shank bent billiard—is prized for its elegant proportions and cool smoking characteristics.
Finished in Dunhill’s iconic Shell Briar sandblast, the pipe features deep ring grain with a rich, ruby-black stain that highlights the natural contours of the briar. The vulcanite stem is adorned with Dunhill’s signature white dot, and the shape provides a comfortable clench and excellent balance in hand.
