Peterson: SPC 20th Anniversary Sandblasted Spigot (69) Fishtail (44/80) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-029-47506
The "69" is one of Peterson's most traditional English designs, representing the style of bent Billiard common to classic English and French marques. The prominent transition and heavy-set shank that define Peterson's aesthetic are forgone, replaced by a more slender, angular profile. It's one of the most classic designs in the Irish marque's lineup, featuring clean, smooth lines and balanced proportions — perfect for those drawn to Peterson's history and reputation of craftsmanship but desire a leaner style of bent Billiard.
2020 marks the 20th year since Sykes Wilford founded Smokingpipes.com. To commemorate such a milestone, we've partnered with numerous pipemakers to release several projects throughout the year, the first of which is Peterson's SPC 20th Anniversary line. As this is a deeply personal endeavor, Sykes wanted the series not only to showcase the tradition and quality of Peterson's manufacture but represent pipes which he himself found interesting and attractive. Thus, he decided that Peterson's contribution to the Smokingpipes 20th Anniversary project would be accented with silver — silversmithing being so core to Peterson's identity — as well as showcase the quality of the marque's recently revamped sandblasting process, which now follows an approach similar to that of artisan pipemakers but on a larger scale to accommodate higher rates of production. Using this new process, Peterson produced 3,000 pipes during the time we were sourcing for the 20th Anniversary line. Out of those 3,000 stummels, Sykes handpicked 80 pieces that met certain criteria: He wanted blasts that were especially dense, deep, and craggy — reminiscent of early 20th century English and Irish pipes. This piece is one of the 80 total Peterson SPC 20th Anniversary pipes produced, stamped with its serialized number and our special 20th Anniversary logo. It boasts Peterson's superlative silverwork, in the form of a spigot mount arrangement, and comes complete with a black pipe bag custom made by master leatherworker Claudio Albieri, emblazoned with both the Peterson and Smokingpipes logos. Join us in celebrating 20 years of Smokingpipes with this limited edition Peterson pipe, and be on the lookout throughout the year for our other exciting 20th Anniversary projects.
