Aran Smooth Nickel Mounted (85) P-Lip Tobacco Pipe

Joining Peterson's "86" and "87" shapes, the "85" is a straight Apple rendition with a plump, rounded bowl. Out of those Apple iterations, though, the "85" is the most svelte and streamlined version, forgoing the often muscular proportions championed by the Irish marque in favor of a sleek and streamlined motif that prioritizes a petite overall size and lightweight profile. As such, it's ideal for those who appreciate smaller interpretations of classic shapes and perfect as a reliable travel companion and on-the-go pipe.

One of Peterson's most traditional finishes, the Aran presents a color palette of chocolatey stain and jet-black stem. In the smooth iteration, it highlights the briar's natural grain pattern with handsome reservation — not distracting from the form's shape yet, at the same time, offering enough definition and detail to remain intriguing and individual, accented here with a flashy nickel band to add some formal panache and elegant appeal.
