Peterson: Saint Patrick's Day 2024 Smooth (305) (932/1600) P-Lip Tobacco Pipe

Perhaps the most iconic of all Peterson shapes, the "305" Calabash is the System version of the cherished "05" design. It features a bowl flaring trumpet-like at the rim, a high transition to the shank, and a shank that is wide, muscular, and substantial in hand. Its wide base and smooth curvature, along with its easy-to-grasp, cinched waistline, have been prominent features admired by generations of smokers. Among Peterson's oldest and most popular shapes, the "305" epitomizes the Peterson design aesthetic, especially with the added benefit of the Irish marque's patented System engineering.

Peterson's longest-standing annual release, the Irish marque's St. Patrick's Day line debuted in 1998. The series is among the marque's most celebrated and highly anticipated releases, and like previous versions, the 2024 rendition pays homage to Kapp & Peterson's storied Irish heritage with a color palette befitting the Emerald Isle. Comprising an assortment of iconic Peterson's shapes in five different finishes, all with System engineering, this release's standout feature is the vibrant green acrylic military mount which replaces the standard nickel variety. The fitment offers a rich dose of contrast to the composition, especially against the black acrylic P-Lip stem, and this particular pipe wears a deep, rich, Terracotta-like smooth finish: further enhancing this contrast. Additionally, this pipe has been serialized out of 1600 total pieces, a limited edition that includes a pipe bag made from hand-woven Irish tweed for stylish and festive carry.
