The Peterson system range has been one of the biggest sellers for Peterson, since it was invented by Charles Peterson at the end of 19th Century. This amazing innovation, results in a cool and dry smoke from a bent pipe. The moisture trap between the bowl and mouthpiece keeps the tobacco dry, cool and reduces the dottle left in the bowl. Charles Peterson also created the P Lip 7 years later; this directs the smoke to the roof of the mouth and avoids painful tongue bite. The Peterson system range uses both the Moisture Trap (System) and P Lip mouthpieces, to which the design has never changed since 1898.
Charles Peterson was armed with an imaginative flair and a craftsman’s background when he took on the mission to make a better pipe. Inspired by his singular vision, Charles created the Peterson 'System' pipe in 1865 and together with brothers George and Fredrick Kapp, they pioneered a new standard of Pipes.
Back in the 1890's these first patents would revolutionise the pipe-making world and transform a fledging idea into what's become the oldest continuously operating pipe-marker in the world.
Peterson Pipes are a traditional shape with modern lines. Heritage and tradition are essential for the Peterson brand and their commitment to their origins results in world-class pipe making.
