Peterson
System Standard 312

About the maker:
The Nurnberg brothers Friedrich and Heinrich Kapp, whose elegant Dublin tobacconist first opened for business in 1865 at Grafton Street, Dublin could scarcely have dreamt that they would participate in the birth of a legend.

Friedrich & Heinrich, who christened their shop simply 'Kapp Brothers,' soon made a name for themselves making and selling quality Meerschaum and Briar Root pipes. It was not long before Charles Peterson, walked into Kapp Brothers Grafton Street premises armed with a revolutionary pipe and ambitious plans for the future.

Peterson introduced a revolution in pipe smoking which brought pleasure to smokers worldwide: so-called "system pipes". This was followed in by the Peterson Lip mouthpiece, another innovation designed with a deep understanding of the pipe man's needs. The System pipe smokes cool and dry to the last puff and has won for it's creators many Gold Medal awards. The Peterson Lip, by adapting the pipe precisely to the contours of the lips and teeth, ensures a comfortable and satisfying smoke at all times.
