Peterson: Speciality Natural Silver Mounted Calabash Fishtail Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-029-116912
In Peterson's 1945 catalog, the Irish marque introduced four Specialty shapes: the Barrel, Tankard, Calabash, and Belgique. The line forgoes Peterson's conventional stamping and shaping cues. Each design receives a name rather than a shape number, and the whole lineup is united by a slender, petite disposition — a stark contrast to the robust, muscular aesthetic that dominates the Irish firm's portfolio. These are the smallest, most lightweight designs Peterson has to offer, and they've been popular favorites over the past 70+ years, with many pipe smokers devoting them to flake tobaccos. Presented here is the curvaceous Calabash shape, the curled and flaring Dublin-like bowl dressed in a vivid, honey-blonde stain and accented with some of the Irish marque's esteemed silverwork.
