Facts, not a grade. We do not score a pipe out of ten: a number would rank a restored pipe above an honest one, and restoration is exactly what this hobby prices down. Every line above is checkable by anyone holding the pipe. Lines marked Faridunhill standing declaration rest on our published, dated statement of shop practice (v1.0, 2026-07-29) — not on an inspection of this individual pipe. It is one document, in public, that you can hold us to.
This Peterson pipe represents the 106 shape, a straight English Billiard characterized by its substantial bowl proportions and thick shank. The pipe features a smooth finish in a deep emerald green coloration, consistent with Peterson's Racing Green series. A bright sterling silver band provides contrasting accent to the dark green stain. The stem is fitted with Peterson's proprietary P-Lip mouthpiece, designed to direct smoke upward toward the palate. The 106 shape is noted for its classic billiard form with robust dimensions that make it a substantial smoking instrument.

This record is append-only. Nothing is deleted — a correction is a new entry that supersedes the old one, and both stay visible.
Nobody leaves empty-handed. If you hold the catalogue page, the dated advertisement, or a hallmarked sibling that closes one of these — or simply own this model and can measure yours — send it in. Contributions are checked, credited to you by name, and the record is updated with the date it changed.
Instagram post, 2020-12-12. Published to a third-party platform on that date and archived since — a timestamp we cannot move. It is evidence that this object existed and looked like this, then.
The photographs are the identity. 6 images of this pipe's grain, stamping and stem are held as its fingerprint. The handle above is only a handle: lose it, and the pipe can still be matched back to this record from its grain.
