Peterson System Spigot 307 Rusticated Bent Billiard Spigot Briar Pipe, New

Description

Peterson pipes generally need no introduction, but just in case you’re unfamiliar: in 1876, a Latvian named Charles Peterson immigrated to Ireland and was hired making pipes in a workshop owned by Frederick and George Kapp. After rising through the ranks to become head craftsman, Peterson bought into the Kapp’s business, which was renamed, Kapp & Peterson (K&P). During this time, Peterson himself applied for several patents for pipe designs, including the world-famous Peterson’s System. Since then, Peterson has become one of the most recognizable names in pipe smoking and continues to produce high quality pipes from their headquarters in Dublin.

The System Spigot is a few steps up from the System Standard, not least because it is mounted with a spigot mount by Peterson’s renowned silversmiths. As with all of Peterson’s System pipes, the System Spigot features a patented reservoir in its shank to collect moisture and alleviate gurgle, as well as a P-lip stem to make sure the pipe smokes cool and dry. This one is rendered in Peterson’s shape 307 bent billiard and finished in their house rustication style.
