Peterson: Christmas 2024 Copper Spigot Heritage (406) Fishtail Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-029-119151
While the "408" does display Prince-like elements, the "406" is Peterson's definitive take on the classic Prince shape. Seemingly plucked straight from a vintage English catalog, the profile displays the design's characteristically long, slightly downturned stem, informing its reputation for elegance. The bowl is squat and plump, with perhaps some extra heft to its base, per Peterson's signature shaping style, but the shank and transition are decidedly trimmer, catering more to traditional Anglo-French proportions than the robust, muscular aesthetic seen throughout the Irish marque's portfolio.
Since 2009, Peterson has released an annual Christmas series that features the Irish marque's iconic shapes in an appropriately seasonal color palette. It's become among the manufacturer's most anticipated and collected series, and many editions are notable for their refined copper accents, which elevate the warm, holiday motif. The 2024 version continues the copper theme, pairing its shapes to stylish copper spigot mounts, an arrangement first available in 2022's edition. For 2024's release, however, these warm copper mounts are paired to colorful acrylic stems in rich cumberland tones, providing complementary hues that ensure a cohesive palette no matter which finish these pipes are dressed in. Available in five finishes, these pipes feature a diverse range of colors and textures to choose from, with this particular example dressed in the dark, rich stain of the Heritage line.
