Ireland, 2007

Yet another one pipe from the luxury 7-pipes series initiated by Peterson’s in 1987 to honour Sir Arthur Conan Doyle characters: Sherlock Holmes Original, Watson, Squire, Professor, Deerstalker, Baskerville and Baker Street. Soon after the “Original” series success an additional “The Return of Sherlock Holmes” collection was launched with the 7 additional shapes: The Mycroft, Hudson, Strand, Rathbone, Lestrade, Hansom, and the Milverton. So, it seems Peterson’s made their adorers quite busy for the next century ?

This time it’s the “Watson” (Peterson shape XL17).

The pipe marking is “Peterson \ OF DUBLIN \ SHERLOCK \ HOLMES”, “WATSON” on the stummel, “Peterson’s STERLING SILVER” and silver hallmarks with the italic “W” for 2007 on the collar. The length is 13.0 cm (5.12″), bowl’s height is 5.7 cm (2.24″). External diameter of the bowl is 4.5 cm (1.77″), internal diameter is 2.1 cm (0.83″). The depth is 4.7 cm (1.85″) and this pipe weights 74 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, 9 mm filter. The bowl surface has a few not very noticeable scratched and identations, but we’ve decided to keep the unique original finish of this beautyful pipe.

Ireland, 1910-15 This small compact (or better to say – “pocket”) billiard has recently celebrated its century. And not only the stem of a retro design and an unusual bone stinger tells about it. Except the name of the maker and the series, there are no other markings on the pipe, in particular a designation…

England, 1927 An illustrative example how the consumer preferences changes over decades. Todays smokers are usually interested in pipes marked “large”, “extra large”, “incredibly large” and so on and so forth. Such the trend arised the most probably after the end of the WWII and many leading manufacturers such as Charatan’s and Barling were involved…

Ireland A highly classical, highly traditional and highly Irish pipe from Petersons! Middle size, comfortable shape, capacious chamber – no need in wide explanations! That’s a real Peterson! The pipe accomodates a 9 mm filter, but also can be enjoyed without filter (with a 9 mm adapter).

Ireland A pleasant lightly smoked Peterson pipe from the new (republic) era. The pipe was smoked only a few times and didn’t required too much effort for restoration and refreshing. Good addition to any collection!
