Short Army Rusticated (999) P-Lip Tobacco Pipe

Defined by a Bulldog bowl and round shank, the Rhodesian is a classic shape that's enjoyed a place on traditional pipe charts for well over a century. On Peterson's chart, the age-old form is designated as the "999," showcasing everything pipe smokers love about the traditional shape — hard lines around the bowl; a tapering rim; and a stout, muscular disposition in hand — while also boasting the Irish marque's conventional shaping cues. The bowl tapers above and below the design's defining beadlines, while the rim barely rises above the transition thanks to the extra heft lent to the shank — a signature stylistic element of Peterson.

Introduced in 2023, Peterson's Short Army series features an aesthetic similar to the Irish Made Army and Army Filter series, centering its design on the army mount configuration of the shank and stem. The line comprises shapes from Peterson's aptly titled Short series, maintaining Nosewarmer proportions throughout, keeping the pipes short and compact while the domed mount provides contrast against the stummel. Eminently pocketable and travel friendly, the Short Army comes paired with a trim P-Lip fitted via a sturdy army mount of nickel. The series comprises a trio of different finishes, including a dark, chestnut-stained smooth finish; a crisp sandblast; and a dark, craggy rustication. Sure to make for a valued travel companion or designated jaw hanger, the pipes in the Short Army line provide a powerful amount of utility in a petite package.
