'''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. | '''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.

OTHER BOWL MATERIALS: Dunhill has offered meerschaum pipes since inception, most probably at all times these pipes, other then perhaps the bit, were made by others and other then a white dot on the bit of the pipes after the mid teens apparently never bore any Dunhill nomenclature. Probably also from inception Dunhill offered but likely did not make meerschaum lined Calabash pipes, bearing a white dot bit and occationally an 'AD' mounted band. In at least the 1960's and 1970's and probably before and after Dunhill also offered meerschaum lined briar pipes usually, if not always in the Shell finish. These pipes were undoubtedly fully made by Dunhill. Again in the 1960's and 1970's and perhaps before and after Dunhill offered briar billiard bowl pipes of its making with the bowls covered in leather. | OTHER BOWL MATERIALS: Dunhill has offered meerschaum pipes since inception, most probably at all times these pipes, other then perhaps the bit, were made by others and other then a white dot on the bit of the pipes after the mid teens apparently never bore any Dunhill nomenclature.
