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.
The Peterson Pipes selection has something for everyone, from the Iconic System Range, the big Sherlock Holmes collection too 9mm filter pipes.
The Peterson System is still the most popular line Peterson produce, along with the P-Lip mouthpiece. Each briar pipe is made in the Dublin factory by skilled craftsmen and enjoyed the world over. Over 100,000 pipes are made every year at the Peterson factory; traditionally most are smoked in the UK & Europe, but increasingly more are being enjoyed by smoker’s worldwide.
