One of Dunhill's more unique variations, this "4412" is a lithe take on the classic Stack, marked by a gently bent, Prince-like stem. Tall of bowl, there's plenty of chamber on offer, and the elegant bend out back makes for a more comfortable clenching posture and matches well with the svelte, slender lines of the profile.
Dunhill's Ruby Bark finish is one that's gone through a fairly extensive evolution since its inception in 1972. It began as the Redbark and has always remained a red-stained sandblast, but the color was brightened a few years after its introduction before Dunhill returned to the original, darker hue in 1976. Eventually, though, the Redbark was discontinued in 1987. After a hiatus of several decades, the same ruby-stained sandblast was re-imagined in the form of today's Ruby Bark finish, adding to the rich aesthetic crisp accents of sterling silver for a colorful presentation that still retains a high level of formality.
