Peterson: Christmas 2024 Copper Spigot Smooth (69) Fishtail Tobacco Pipe

The "69" is one of Peterson's most traditional English designs, representing the style of bent Billiard common to classic English and French marques. The prominent transition and heavy-set shank that define Peterson's aesthetic are forgone, replaced by a more slender, angular profile. It's one of the most classic designs in the Irish marque's lineup, featuring clean, smooth lines and balanced proportions — perfect for those drawn to Peterson's history and reputation of craftsmanship but desire a leaner style of bent Billiard.

Since 2009, Peterson has released an annual Christmas series that features the Irish marque's iconic shapes in an appropriately seasonal color palette. It's become among the manufacturer's most anticipated and collected series, and many editions are notable for their refined copper accents, which elevate the warm, holiday motif. The 2024 version continues the copper theme, pairing its shapes to stylish copper spigot mounts, an arrangement first available in 2022's edition. For 2024's release, however, these warm copper mounts are paired to colorful acrylic stems in rich cumberland tones, providing complementary hues that ensure a cohesive palette no matter which finish these pipes are dressed in. Available in five finishes, these pipes feature a diverse range of colors and textures to choose from, with this particular example dressed in a warm, rich smooth finish.
