Duncan Briars is another great name from days gone by of British pipe glory. The company was established in 1899 by John Louis Duncan.

John Duncan, a grandson of the founder , sold the firm to his brother-in-law Peter Wilson when he retired from business in the 1990's.

What is left over? Wilson worked the miracle of Ben Wade's resurrection buying the rights of the brand in 1998 from Dunhill. To keep things simple today's Ben Wade pipes are made as order production for him at the Walthamstowe plant - Parker Hardcastle Briar Pipes Mfrs. / Dunhill Pipes & Smokers Requisites.
