Peterson Pipes Aran Smooth Nickel Mounted (129) P-Lip

The bent Dublin marries a conical, rim-flaring bowl to a curved stem, lively up top and comfortable at the teeth. A full, deeply bent example of the shape, this 129 carries the bowl low for a balanced, hands-free clench. A deep walnut stain settles over the smooth briar with an understated sheen, dressed with a polished nickel band at the joint, finished with a jet-black vulcanite P-Lip bit.

A slightly dressier everyday Peterson, the nickel band lending a bit of polish — well suited to anyone who wants the Dublin’s elegance with the easy clench of a bent shape.
