Sandblasting in Dunhill pipes is a special finishing method designed to enhance the natural beauty of briar wood. Through a controlled blast of sand or abrasive material, the surface layer of the briar is removed, revealing the grain and internal texture. This treatment imparts a rustic and three-dimensional look to the pipe, distinct from smooth and polished finishes. Sandblasting not only accentuates the aesthetic characteristics of the briar but can also improve the pipe’s grip, making it more comfortable to hold. Dunhill, a historic and prestigious brand in the pipe world, popularized this technique, which has become a distinctive feature of some of its product lines. Achieving a uniform and refined sandblasted finish requires great artisanal skill to highlight the natural beauty of briar without compromising quality. This type of finish is especially appreciated by those seeking a pipe with authentic and traditional character, telling the story of the wood through its visible and tactile texture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"page-faq-new.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"class_list":["post-103092","faq-new","type-faq-new","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
