Peterson Killarney Red 999, Bent Rhodesian Briar Pipe, Fishtail

Description

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.

Named after a town in Southwest Ireland, Peterson’s Killarney series honors the cultural and natural history of Ireland. Each pipe in the Killarney series is fitted with dual nickel bands, presenting a distinguished look at an accessible price point. The Killarney series is offered in several finishes, and this 999 Rhodesian is dressed in Peterson’s Red smooth finish.
