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, 1970-80s The pipe does not need any long and detailed representations. It’s the real lightweight, shining and still unsmoked Peterson’s system pipe made in 1970-80s (we have obtained it together with a Peterson’s Dunmore pipe made at that time).

Ireland, 1945-75 Steve Laug published in his blog at rebornpipes a very deep and detailed investigation regarding Shamrock pipes. “There were two Shamrock lines—the Rogers Import U.S.-only line with the nickel band, and the Peterson unmounted line with a white “S” stamped on the mouthpiece.

USA, 1970s An excellent very lightly smoked American pipe from the most famous producer in USA! The pipe was made in 1970s, a pleasant attempt to inherit either Peterson or some Italians.
