The Peterson Sherlock Holmes Lestrade P-lip Apple shape bent is one of the most beautiful and iconic pipes in the entire Peterson production.
The Peterson Sherlock Holmes Lestrade P-lip Apple shape bent is presented here in the Heritage finish with the smooth polished briar in a deep dark ruby red.
The Lestrade shape is a massive Apple shape, always beautiful, elegant, comfortable and smokes great, great pipe!
Originally released as part of the Return of Sherlock Holmes series (1992-1997), this fully curved and highly tubular calabash-like apple shape features an elongated mouthpiece and a plump, spherical, almost Hawbill-like bowl and was modeled after a sketch made by our dear friend Mario Lubinski.
The shape of the Peterson Sherlock Holmes Lestrade P-lip Heritage pipe is similar to the Bent Apple, and the very dark ruby color, contrasting with the powerful silver ring, gives it an unparalleled importance and elegance for a pipe.
The Peterson Sherlock Holmes Lestrade P-lip Heritage pipe is a pipe for expert smokers.
The Irishman Charles Peterson began producing briar pipes and in 1890 discovered the famous reservoir system.
It is a reservoir in the stem under the head that has the task of keeping the tobacco dry.
All the humidity – this is the goal – is conveyed into the reservoir.
Peterson pipes, personally and exclusively handmade, are the result of a long and patient process at the headquarters in the south of Dublin, where one of the oldest pipe factories in the world is located: Peterson of Dublin.
Characteristic of Peterson pipes is the classic, harmonious shape, elegance and practicality.
They are carved in the most select and precious briar.
This is the line dedicated to the classics of noir literature and the detective Sherlock Holmes.
The Sherlock Holmes Lestrade P-lip Heritage takes up the lines of the classic Bent Apple pipe, very curved, embellished with a sturdy stem with a 925 silver ring and a very comfortable P-Lip mouthpiece.
Each Peterson pipe is a unique and unrepeatable piece, the external finish may vary slightly from the image since each briar pipe is a unique piece.
The variations are intended only in the shades of the briar, the measurements and shape do not vary.
PETERSON’S PIPE IS FASHIONED FOR THE TOBACCO ENTHUSIAST WHO INSISTS HANDLING ONLY THE FINEST CRAFTSMANSHIP.
MADE IN IRELAND OF BRIAR ROOT, THE PIPE WILL PROVIDE GENUINE ENJOYMENT FOR YEARS TO COME.
