This pipe is no longer available, as always we have the left the listing on here for historical reference and interest
The cool smoking characteristics of a Churchwarden pipe combined with the quality craftsmanship and smoking characteristics associated with Peterson pipes and now Peterson have introduced them with the new Femjoy finish. From what we hear this stain was an experiment that went erm.... right! A new buffed Smokey Brown finish, which has our stamp of approval.
It is well documented that Churchwarden pipes smoke cooler than standard pipes, which is due to the extra distance the smoke has to travel. This gives the smoke more time to cool. Churchwardens are also known as Reading pipes as the bowl is kept away from the face allowing the smoker to read a book at the same time.
The Peterson Churchwarden Fermoy Prince is a standard, highly polished, Apple shaped bowl with an extra long Acrylic stem. The Prince has a fairly small bowl size and bore, which keeps the weight down and can be hung without support. The Apple shape is comfier in the hand but also aids in cooling. The apple shape has a thicker wall towards the base, where pipe are often prone to overheating.
Fishtail mouthpiece: Petersons trademark patented mouthpiece is the p.lip design, which has many advantages but it's not really needed on a churchwarden as the smoke is already remarkable cool and smooth and tongue bite isn't as much of an issue.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a generic image that we have taken from a random selection of this pipe model from our stocks. It is unlikely to be the exact pipe you will receive. Due to the nature of the raw material used and this being a handmade product there will be some variation in grain, colour and finish. There could also be a slight variation in the dimensions provided.
