Peterson: System Standard Sandblasted (307) P-Lip Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-029-117254
Peterson's "307" is one of the marque's largest bent Billiard designs within the System series and does an exceptional job at showcasing the marque's robust and muscular approach to shaping, especially in the proportions of its shank and transition. The stout insulating walls of the bowl fill the hand effortlessly, while the generously bent stem still allows it to be comfortably clenched. Its staunch, substantial disposition coupled with the Irish firm's patented System engineering results in a bold take on the shape chart standard and one that's unmistakably the signature work of one of pipedom's most respected and legendary companies.
Peterson's System pipe is one of the Irish marque's most celebrated and historic innovations, boasting patents dating back to 1890. The System is comprised of three aspects: an army mount, internal condensation reservoir, and the graduated bore P-Lip mouthpiece (though Peterson does offer fishtail versions to accommodate smokers' preferences). Being the only externally visible of the three components, the military mount allows the pipe to be broken down even while hot, reinforcing the shank. The other two parts, the internal reservoir and graduated bore, are found within the pipe itself — both working in tandem to remove moisture from the smoke. Such a construction requires a slightly different process when cleaning a System pipe, and results in a more flavorful, drier smoke. The System Standard line features a sturdy nickel army mount and is presented here in a chestnut-hued sandblast, offering plenty of stimulating texture while still showcasing the briar's natural grain. The System series is a testament to Peterson's influence on the pipe industry at large, and its continued popularity over the past 100-plus years bespeaks the company's reputation for quality.
