Peterson: Speciality Rusticated Nickel Mounted Billiard Fishtail Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 002-029-121158
In Peterson's 1945 catalog, the Irish marque introduced four Speciality shapes: the Barrel, Tankard, Calabash, and Belgique. The line forgoes Peterson's conventional stamping and shaping cues, and it has since expanded to encompass more than those four aforementioned shapes. 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 pipesmokers devoting them to flake tobaccos. Presented here is a trim Billiard with a slender bowl and a lean shank-and-stem arrangement — with this particular one dressed in a stimulating rustication, not unlike that of Peterson's Donegal Rocky series, and accented with a regal nickel band.
