Dracula Rusticated (107) Fishtail Tobacco Pipe

Within Peterson's standard shape chart, the "107" is one of the most robust and substantial of the Irish marque's straight Billiard variations. This piece is defined by a stolid, upright bowl, housing a generous chamber, while the shank and transition continue Peterson's signature, stout shaping aesthetic. It's a striking example of the Irish firm's deft balance of iconic, individual style and the timeless classicism of traditional pipe chart standards.

One of the Irish marque's most striking and colorful series within their standard fare, Peterson's Dracula line draws inspiration from Bram Stoker's classic novel to offer a color palette worthy of the Count himself. Here, a jet-black rustication adorns the bowl coinciding with the inky swirls overtop the blood-red acrylic stem. A regal band of bright nickel separates stem from stummel and juxtaposes an elegant appeal against the rest of the piece's spooky aesthetic — similar to Dracula's own aristocratic, yet horrific nature. Like Peterson's Sherlock Holmes series, the Dracula line is a worthy homage to historic literature from one of the pipe industry's most historic marques.
