Peterson Donegal Rocky 150 Rusticated Bulldog with Nickel (New)

About this pipe:

Peterson pipes generally need no introduction, but just in case you’re unfamiliar: in 1876, a Latvian named Charles Peterson immigrated to Ireland and was hired making pipes in a workshop owned by Frederick and George Kapp. After rising through the ranks to become head craftsman, Peterson bought into the Kapp’s business, which was renamed, Kapp & Peterson (K&P). During this time, Peterson himself applied for several patents for pipe designs, including the world-famous Peterson’s System. Since then, Peterson has become one of the most recognizable names in pipe smoking and continues to produce high quality pipes from their headquarters in Dublin.

Peterson’s Donegal Rocky line debuted in 1945, and has been something of a mainstay among traditional, Anglo-French briars ever since. Named for its finish, which evokes the stony geological formations of Ireland’s northwestern region, each pipe is finished with a deep burgundy top coat, fitted with a black vulcanite mouthpiece, and mounted with a bright, engraved nickel collar.
