The Twelve Days of Christmas
On the twelfth day of Christmas
My true Love sent to me
Twelve lords a-leaping
Eleven ladies dancing
Ten pipers piping
Nine drummers drumming
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
Six gees a-laying
Five gold rings
Four calling birds
Three French hens
Two turtle doves
And a partridge in a pear tree
This Alfred Dunhill pipe is from a Limited Edition of 500 which celebrates Christmas 1999
It is a Group 3 Rhodesian finished in Amber Root fitted with a sterling silver hallmarked band, which is decorated with the verse
Seven Swans a-swimming
This is the seventh of twelve verses taken from a traditional sixteenth century English Christmas Carol.
The accempanying sterling silver tamper depicts Seven Swans swimming around a cluster of rushes.
