PETERSON’S Dunmore 79

March 28, 2021March 28, 2021

Ireland, 1970-80s

Everyone knows that Peterson’s pipes are great smokers! And that Peterson’s Shystem pipes are the greatest. You shouldn’t be confused with the stamping – it’s the same Peterson’s system but there’s nice carving instead of a metallic end cap. Very rare Peterson pipe! The series was produced in 1970-80s.

The pipe marking is “Peterson’s \ “DUNMORE””, “MADE IN THE \ REPUBLIC \ OF IRELAND”, “79”. The length is 15.0 cm (5.9″), the bowl’s height is 5.3 cm (2.09″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.2 cm (1.26″), internal diameter is 1.9 cm (0.75″). The depth is 4.0 cm (1.57″) and this pipe weights 51 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter. The chamber has normal smoked wear without any critical issues. During the restoration we have patched a chip on the bottom of the shank (below the “DUNMORE”) logo.

Ireland, 1970-80s The Dunmore series was produced in 1970-80s and represents in fact the same highly popular Peterson’s System design. But the shank is decorated with a nice carving instead of an nickel or a silver endcap. Now such Dunmore pipes are a rarity and cause much more collectors’ interest than “standard” Peterson’s Standard devices….

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…

Ireland The Irish classics and the subject of a cult worship! This is the “Peterson’s system” invented at the end of the 19th century and which made the company world-wide famous. The pipe is from the early new, “republic” era, made most probably in 1950-60s.

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).

PETERSON’S Kildare 69
September 22, 2020September 22, 2020
Ireland, 1950-80s According to many experts Kildare series was launched yet in the 1950s and was being produced until 1990s. The 69 shape is perhaps the most attractive and elegant implementation of the bent pipe concept. So the pipe is still a good old “Irish Peterson” made in Dublin unlike todays “Italian Petersons” – both…
