About This Pipe
Similar to Peterson's "265" design, the "260" is an oval-shanked Billiard that prioritizes sleek and svelte lines compared to the Irish marque's typically more robust shaping style. Where the two designs differ is in their shank length: The "265" features an abbreviated shank for a more compact profile, while the "260" maintains a longer extension for a more streamlined aesthetic. It's the perfect piece for Billiard aficionados who appreciate classic shapes but prefer those of more slender, lightweight appeal.
Named after County Donegal in northwest Ireland, Peterson's Donegal Rocky series offers one of the Irish firm's most distinctive and immediately recognizable finishes. Much like the mountainous region it's inspired by, the rustication style of the Donegal Rocky line is incredibly craggy and provides plenty of stimulating texture, transforming any pipe that wears it into a rugged workhorse smoker. Peterson's first rusticated finish, the Donegal Rocky dates back to 1945, and this particular example is presented here with a bright brand of sterling silver.
