Cumberland
...Wat bedoelt men ermee? Is het een bepaald model of heeft het te maken met de afwerking?

Re: Cumberland
1. Cumberland is een "finish" van Dunhill:
Introduced in 1979. Cumberland is another sandblast with a brown stain and a brindle stem (the material is more commonly called ‘cumberland’ these days, thanks to Dunhill’s influence and the success of the finish over the past quarter-century). Originally, the Cumberland always featured a smooth brown rim, but in the current production the rim is sometimes smooth, sometimes sandblasted. Occasionally, a straight grain blast is finished with a Cumberland stain and a “Shilling Grain,” similar to the “Ring Grain,” resulting in a new variation on the traditional sandblast. The Shilling series is named for the British coin: the sandblast looks like a stack of shillings. Named after the warehouse on Cumberland Road. The old pipes that inspired this finish were found there.
2. Cumberland is een materiaal dat wordt gebruikt voor de mondstukken van pijpen:
Cumberland is a sulphur-hardened rubber. It is fairly soft on the teeth and is more flexible than Lucite. It will yellow and oxidize in sunlight and with time. Do you see a recurring theme here? Cumberland is made the same way as Ebonite and Vulcanite, but has brown and red pigment added to give it a more interesting appearance. Despite claims to the contrary Cumberland will oxidize. It isn’t as fast as Vulcanite because like Ebonite less sulphur is used in its construction. Cumberland also has the added benefit of being a lighter colour than black and so does not show yellowing as quickly or as dramatically as black materials. Dunhill was the first to put Cumberland on the market.
