Dunhill Unicorn Pipe

[john3music]

I was looking at estate pipes on eBay and came across a Dunhill RubyBark pipe. Opening bid was $120 so I put in a bid of $123. Many folks were on the watch list so I had no expectations of winning this pipe. When time expired I was shocked to find out I won this pipe for $123. The original owner was selling it. He restored it to as close to factory conditions as possible. I cannot believe I got this Dunhill pipe in excellent smoking condition for such a low price. You never know what you’ll come across.

I briefly owned a Dunhill Red Bark that I paid $90 for in an antique junk shop. I did a lot of research after I found that the name Red Bark was only used for a year or two before Dunhill changed it to Ruby Bark. The Red Bark/Ruby Bark pipes were named for the color of the stain. I got the impression that it wasn't a well received line of pipes and was discontinued after 15 years or so.

This was mine. I sold it to a friend who offered me $150 for it.

Hopefully that Dunny s like a champ. If so, that’ll be an easy $123 spent. Enjoy. ️

I always ways a birth year Dunhill but 1947's are rather scarce and prices are astronomical.
