Dunhill Magna Carta Pipe, Shell Briar

"No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgment of his equals or by the law of the land."

So goes the most famous line of the Magna Carta, a royal charter of rights agreed to by King John of England in 1215, which established the principle that everybody, including the king, was subject to the law for the first time in British history.

The Dunhill Magna Carta pipe has been specially manufactured to celebrate the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta.

The pipe is a Group 4 Bent Billiard shape in Shell finish, and is fitted with a Sterling silver band decorated with the engraving "Magna Carta 1215-2015".

The accompanying solid Sterling silver tamper resembles the Great Royal seal used by King John to authenticate the Magna Carta in 1215.

The Magna Carta pipe comes housed in an exclusive leather presentation case and it is accompanied by a book detailing the history of the Magna Carta.

The pipe is limited to only 200 units worldwide.
