Description
The Sherlock Holmes Hansom line presents all Peterson’s fabled, Sherlock-inspired shapes in a rugged, earthy rustication, accented by broad sterling silver bands and traditional, jet-black stems. First appearing as the Sherlock Holmes Commemorative pipe in 1987, and later as part of the Original Sherlock Holmes collection (1899-1991), this robust bent Bulldog shape was designed by the senior craftsman Paddy Larrigan, and features a bold bowl, deep, full bend, and the stout, muscular proportions that define Peterson’s House Style.

In 1874, Frederick decoded to strike out on his own and moved to Dublin to continue his pipe making endeavours. A year later,a young Latvian, Charles Peterson, joined the business. Charles brought with him two great assets: a creative instict for designing pipes plus outstanding craftmanship. It was a powerful combination. In time, Kapp & Peterson became simply Peterson. And the rest is a continuing story of heritage and history, innovation and individuality.
