Dunhill is the only factory-made pipe that can be accurately dated. This contributes to its popularity with collectors, but it can be difficult to accurately date any given pipe that's why we develop a more comprehensive and intuitive dating guide. Based on Loring's book and R. D. Field's guide - its a combination of them and other information we acquired through the time. We hope this guide helps both, enthusiasts and beginners.

We are working on a unique guide, joining the best guides available. Still under construction, but very soon will be ready. It's our [[Pipedia Dunhill Dating Guide]].
Dunhill is the only factory-made pipe that can be accurately dated. This contributes to its popularity with collectors, but it can be difficult to accurately date any given pipe. We have imported R.D. Fields [[A Dunhill Pipe Dating Guide]] to Pipedia, by permission of the author.
*'''Note''': This guide is very helpful, but there are discrepancies in both the literature regarding the nomenclature and anomalies in the nomenclature itself.
We also highly recommend the book by Dunhill expert, John C. Loring called, "The Dunhill Briar Pipe - 'the patent years and after''''.
*'''Note''': Unfortunately, John passed away several years ago, and his website has disappeared. Fortunately, all articles were saved here: [[John C. Loring]] with contributions by: Jean-Christophe Bienfait, Yang Forcióri, and Doug Valitchka.
