Nice pipes!
Yes that's what I've been told, the really good 1950s Hendersons have fat beads on the ferrules.
I didn't know it was connected to the Greig Sharp era, thanks!
Only problem is that those beads only appear on full ivory or full imitation ivory sets.
There's a certain style of wood projecting mount I associate with Hendersons of that era, I've seen several sets, but I don't know if there was a particular period when all their wood-mount sets used that pattern, or if it was just one of a number of patterns they made concurrently.
