Representing the Irish marque's largest designs, House Pipes showcase Peterson's muscular and robust shaping style, ideal for long, at-home smokes when timeliness is no concern. Rendered in either a straight or a bent Billiard, these extra-extra large designs feature deep chambers and allude to the historic "O" or "Oversized" pipes found in Peterson catalogs back in 1896.

Offerings possessing four "Maxima" stamps, such as this bent Ball example, designate large offerings from Ser Jacopo. The more "Maximas" (going up to nine), the bigger the pipe. With a robust bowl in hand for relaxed smokes, this particular piece highlights hearty grain in a honey-blonde smooth finish.

Castello Big Line

The Italian workshop's Big Line series comprises stummels crafted from briar aged 12 years, ensuring optimal curing of the final burl, and also designates pieces that are exceptionally large, such as this bent Dublin in Castello's Collection finish — a warm stain that is visually striking, with striations of flame grain on the bowl.
