I acquired the two top pipes in the album in a trade. Can anyone ID these stems? Curious to know whether they are originals. I dont know enough about old dunhill stems to tell. Not compared to some of you guys.

I'm going to say, just from the pictures......yes, original. Also, the pipe at the bottom looks like a nice old pre-war Shell. :)

Nothing suspicious about those stems. They need a little sprucing up, but it looks like you've got a nice pair of classic, gnarly Shells.

Those profiles look great and they should clean up nicely!

Thanks guys. They are all patent era. The bottom is beautiful, but blasted too deep in some places and I didn't take the chance on it.
Thanks for all the help gents. It is appreciated.

Tomorrow they will be in my hands. And ill promptly upload some more detailed pictures and decide whether I'll handle the stems or send them off to one of the best restoration guys we have.

Hello, I am a British collector of Dunhill pipes, when I can afford it !! If you tell the patent numbers, and the number after Made in England, (not the number in a circle) One way to tell how old a Dunhill is is the size of the 'Dot' on the mouthpiece, if its smaller and a more golden color, its ivory, and very old

Best Wishes,

wee irv.
