Details
A sub-brand of Dunhill, this Hardcastle bulldog shares many of the definitive characteristics that make the Dunhill versions so desirable: a beadless dividing line, shell sandblast, and classic proportions. This example is fitted with an aftermarket nickel band, presumably to stabilize a shank crack, but the addition does add something extra to the otherwise conservative design. This estate pipe is in good condition, repair band noted, with some minor rim darkening and wear.
