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.
The entry
This Peterson Standard System pipe represents the classic Irish manufacturer's approach to moisture control through its patented system design. The shape 314 is a bent billiard form with a comfortable forward cant to the bowl, finished in a rustic texture that highlights the natural grain of the . The pipe features Peterson's distinctive P-Lip mouthpiece, designed to direct smoke upward toward the palate rather than directly at the tongue. As a System pipe, it incorporates the characteristic reservoir beneath the bowl to collect moisture and a graduated bore in the stem to promote condensation before smoke reaches the smoker. The stampings identify it as part of Peterson's Standard System line in the Rustic finish grade.
