Vintage Dunhill Bruyere pipe, model 155 F/T, group 3A, English production.
An exemplar belonging to the sought-after Dunhill production of the “Patent Era” period, with stamps DUNHILL – LONDON, MADE IN ENGLAND, PAT. No. 417574/34, model 155 F/T and classification 3A.
The combination of markings allows placing the pipe with high probability around 1951.
Made in briar with smooth Bruyere finish in a red-brown shade and a Fishtail mouthpiece in ebony/vulcanite.
The pipe has been used and shows normal signs compatible with age and use. There are carbonizations inside the bowl, darkening and marks on the upper rim, and oxidation/wear of the mouthpiece, as clearly documented in the photographs. The engravings remain clearly legible. No significant structural breaks are evident from the photographs.
Overall length: about 15.5 cm.
