'''Danish Style Pipes:'''  Beginning in the mid '70s Dunhill offered large danish style pipes typically with plateau briar bowl rims and fancy military vulcanite bits.  These pipes were usual hand stamped with some variations but usually included "S/G F/T"  "DUNHILL" (arched) "ROOT BRIAR" "MADE IN ENGLAND" followed by a date stamp.  While these pipes may have been finished in the Dunhill factory they were probably carved in Denmark.  The briar tends to be darker then the usual root briar pipe suggesting that the briar for these pipes was sourced independently.
