Quite Well Smoked Peterson ' S System Standard 1/2 Bent Apple, Rep. Ire
Item History & Price
Pipe length......5.25 inches Bowl height.....1.50 inches Internal bowl diameter......0.75 of an inch.
This is a Lovely Refurbished quite well smoked Peterson's System Standard (I assume 303, but cannot read it) 1/2 Bent Apple, made in the Republic of Ireland. System Standard pipes are Basic Entry Level Petersons that have the Drysmoke feature of the shank well/sump under the shank airhole to trap moist...ure and tar etc. to give a cooler and sweeter smoke, the p-lip stem which limits moisture intake because of the small airhole also enhances the dry smoking. The briar of this 1/2 bent Apple is a deep tan colour with some superbly defined Birdseye and Straight graining, the bowl rim is intact with just light marking, and the nickel plated acorn is in good condition. The p-lip stem has just very light tooth chatter. The bowl was reamed and cleansed, the stem was fully sanitized to make the pipe ready to smoke as soon as you receive it, before the whole pipe was lightly polished and waxed to give the lovely finish you can see in the photos. The pipe will draw and smoke perfectly, sits so snugly in the hand, balanced and so tactile.
Thanks for looking and as usual I will combine postage if you buy more than one of my items from this auction. European tracked postage is £9.85 and for the rest of the world is £11.85......I have had to increase charges following Royal Mail price increases in April but will still combine any number of pipes for the price of one.
