Alfred Dunhill and his story
The year was 1907, when Alfred Dunhill , who was already an established manufacturer of luxury items for wealthy motorists, opened his own smoking shop in London.The Duke Street shop soon became famous thanks to the care with which Alfred Dunhill prepared specific blends for his customers, which he noted in the book “My Mixture”. The book collects more than 40,000 annotations and mixtures. However, we had to wait until 1910 for the first "Bruyere" and "Dead Root" pipes branded " Dunhill " to be produced and 1915 to see the white dot imprinted on the vulcanite mouthpiece. The legendary “Inner Tubes” are from this period, for which collectors are willing to spend fabulous sums.The introduction of the famous logo is not to be found in some market operation or to protect the image of the product, but rather in the request of some customers, who did not understand which was the upper and lower side of the mouthpieces.The first employees, involved in production, were two former Charatan craftsmen. And from that moment the confrontation and the fight for "qualitative" supremacy between the two houses was without holds barred.Unlike its rival "Charatan", which offered an unlimited guarantee for product quality, Dunhill offered its customers a one-year guarantee for any manufacturing defects.This made it necessary to engrave the identifying data of the year of production on the Pipe . Incredibly, what should have been a disadvantage for " Dunhill " turned out to be the winning card in attracting collectors.Obviously it was necessary to offer them a product of notable workmanship, absolutely above the average and this could only be achieved with a strict selection of the product during the entire processing phase, consisting of eighty steps.The only procedure allowed to hide aesthetic defects and which was introduced by Dunhill itself, is sandblasting, during which it is however impossible to hide any more gross defects.
The first “Shells” were produced in 1917.1920 represents a very important date in the history of the London company: in that year, in fact, Alfred Dunhill stopped purchasing already turned heads from France, to use those produced in his own London factory.In addition to sandblasting, the company boasts numerous firsts, including the use of the reducing tube inside the pipe, the cataloging of the classic shapes of the pipes and the creation, at the request of the Prince of Wales Albert - future King Edward VII of England, of a particular and unprecedented shape: the "Prince".1928 saw Alfred Dunhill leave the management of the business in favor of Herbert; which in the following years would give a fundamental imprint to the company strategy.In fact, the 1930s saw the cessation of production of the “ Dunhill ” marked “HW” (Hand Worked); of the “OD” (Own Design), i.e. produced according to the customer's specific design; of the “DR” (Dead Root) which indicated the straight grain models and from 1934 of the “Inner Tube”. At the same time, the first "Roots" and their success in the North American market were born.The company also began to change the nomenclature of the pipes, creating a certain confusion among enthusiasts. Consider that the specific dating list, kept in the archive at 30 Duke Street, consists of around thirty pages. After the Second World War, time passed peacefully and nothing new was proposed until 1950, when the production of the "OD" was resumed, now renamed "ODA" and which would be part of the company's models until 1975. In 1953 the “Tanshell” were put on the market.In 1959 Alfred Dunhill died in his beloved Milan.
The '60s didn't produce anything new, the '70s instead saw the first “Redbark”, “Chesnut” and “Dress” (1973) and Collector (1978).The “Cumberland” have been produced since 1980, while the “Amber Root” were revived in 1995.In reality, if the presentation of new models (with the exception of those designed for collectors) is somewhat rarefied, Dunhill in almost one hundred years of history has spent a lot of energy in the study of details sometimes overlooked by manufacturers, but fundamental for the smoker.Think for example of the continuous study of the materials to be used for the mouthpiece; to continuous investments to find machinery suitable for producing perfectly anatomical mouthpieces and so on.The briar used comes from different countries and this has given rise to numerous recent discussions on the quality of the finished product: from the excellent Greek and Italian plaques to the more modest ones from North Africa. Some have even linked the origin with the type of fixing for which the briar would have been worked: Greece and Italy for the "Root", Algeria for the "Shell".The truth is that the Richemont group (now owner of the Dunhill brand) has maintained the policy of the old company, selecting the best manufacturing areas for its products: France for tobacco pouches, Germany for knives and pipe cleaners and so on.Despite these credentials, the acquisition of the brand by the foreign multinational "Richemont" caused " Dunhill " to lose its nomination as the official supplier of the Royal House of England. On the other hand, the current management allows Dunhill to have points of sale on all five continents. Today's production includes 6 size groups, 8 finishes and 25 models.Each Pipe has 4 numbers:1st corresponds to the size of the Pipe2nd corresponds to the style of the mouthpiece3°-4° corresponds to the shape of the Pipe .
As if that wasn't enough, Dunhill is the only company in the world that can boast the marketing of "sub-brand" pipes of the caliber of "Charatan" and "Parker".The London company is also a producer of tobaccos and accessories, which are recognized throughout the world as a point of reference from a quality point of view.
