PETERSON’S Sherlock Holmes “Baskerville”

December 1, 2018December 21, 2018

Ireland, 1989

A 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 🙂

Despite the shape wasn’t printed on the pipe this is the Baskerville. You may see it at the Petersons’ site: the same shape and almost the same dimensions. One of the most stylish “Sherlock Holmes” pipes!

The pipe markings are “Peterson’s \ Sherlock Holmes”, “MADE IN THE \ REPUBLIC \ OF IRELAND”. The length is 12.2 cm (4.8″), bowl’s height is 5.4 cm (2.12″). External diameter of the bowl is 3.9 cm (1.54″), internal diameter is 2.1 cm (0.83″). The depth is 4.3 cm (1.69″) and this pipe weights 63 gr. Briar, vulcanite stem, no filter.

Our silversmiths…

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).

England, 1976-81 It would be very much boring if everything was unambiguous and transparent with pipes origin history. But, fortunately, not all producers behaved as Dunhill with their obligatory nearly hundred years stamped year suffixes (however, Dunhill was not always pedantic too :-)). Here is, for example, a very rare (some collectors write “extremely rare”)…
