About the Series
Peterson’s flagship line, the System Standard stamp first appeared in 1945, but the entry-level design has been a staple in their catalogues since Charles Peterson secured his final patent in 1898. Designed to provide a cooler, drier smoke, each pipe features a deep reservoir within the shank to collect excess moisture; a graduated bore mouthpiece that funnels the smoke and allows moisture to collect within the reservoir; a sturdy nickel military mount, which allows the pipe to be broken down and cleaned without damage or warping; and Peterson’s patented P-Lip bit, which draws the smoke upward, thus reducing tongue bite. While the P-Lip bit is the traditional choice, they also offer System Standard pipes with fishtail stems. Available here in a craggy Sandblasted finish.
About the Shape
Peterson’s signature take on the classic bent Apple design, and one of their most popular shapes, this timeless jaw-hanger combines a stout shank and robust transition with a deep bend for a tight-knit, muscular aesthetic that demonstrates Peterson’s iconic House Style.
