From 1993 to 2004 the Dunhill Christmas pipes constitute a unique series, named following the English tradition of "The Twelve Days of Christmas. Each year's edition features a line of the nursery rhyme. The pipes are accompanied by a box in the shape of a book, a certificate, and a silver-themed tamper - 500 pieces per year.




In 2005 the Christmas pipe was dedicated to Wilson A. Bentley, the first man who photographed a snowflake showing its structure. The pipe is accompanied by a white book box, with a print run of 400 specimens.

From 2006 to 2010, the Christmas pipes are part of a series called "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, loosely based on Dickens's Christmas Carol. Each edition has a print run of 300 pieces in a red book box covered in green, accompanied by a silver tamper.




In 2011, it began a new series that will be produced for the next 12 years, named the "After the Work The Nutcracker by E.T. A. Hoffmann: The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. Characterized by a blue book box with a tamper larger than previous editions, made with 50 grams of 925 silver. In fact, following the change in the brand name, it would be correct to call these pipes of "The White Spot Christmas Pipes".
