Christmas 2021 Sherlock Holmes Rusticated Lestrade Fishtail

Each year since 2009, Peterson has released a special-edition Christmas pipe, typically presenting an array of popular Classic shapes in a singular finish. For 2021, however, the Irish manufacturer has elevated the series, offering all 14 best-selling Sherlock Holmes shapes in not one but three distinct finishes: Heritage Smooth, Sandblasted, and Rusticated. This Lestrade model wears a deep, craggy rustication, topped with a black acrylic fishtail stem and a warm, tasteful copper mount, and comes complete with a black leather pipe stand.

About the shape: Originally released as part of the Return of Sherlock Holmes series (1992-1997), the Lestrade is a fully bent and rounded bent Apple shape featuring an elongated transition and a spherical bowl.
