This Dunhill Shell Briar 5105 is a prime example of the brand’s iconic sandblasted finish, showcasing the deep, craggy grain that made the Shell line famous. Stamped “Made in England 21”, this pipe dates to 1981, produced during a period known for its consistent craftsmanship and classic English shaping.
The 5105 shape features a long shank and saddle stem—Dunhill’s interpretation of the classic Canadian, offering excellent balance and a cool, dry smoke. The black vulcanite stem sports the traditional white dot, while the ruby-hued undertones of the sandblast lend visual depth and vintage character.
