Christmas Pipe 2008

The 2008 Christmas pipe continues the 5-year theme based on the main characters of the famous book ‘A Christmas Carol’ by Charles Dickens, which we initiated in 2006.

This being the third pipe in the series, it depicts the main character of the story, THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PAST.

The main characters for the coming two years will be the Ghost of Christmas Present and the Ghost of Christmas Future.

This year’s pipe is an elegant group 4 Hungarian in Bruyere finish with polished Easyloader rim top. It features a 10mm Sterling Silver band inscribed “The Ghost of Christmas Past”. The solid tamper depicts in great detail the Ghost and is handcrafted from approximately 80 grams of finest English Sterling Silver.

The highly collectable Dunhill Christmas pipes and tampers are presented in a leather-bound book held in typical red & green Christmas colours with golden embossing in co-ordination with the previous books of this series and each set is accompanied by its numbered limited edition certificate.

This edition series is strictly limited to annually only 300 pipes worldwide. Markets will be allocated the same quantities and edition numbers as put down last year to facilitate collection of sets.
