First appearing as our Sherlock Holmes Commemorative pipe in 1987, and later as part of our Original Sherlock Holmes collection (1899-1991), this extra-large Calabash shape was designed by our senior craftsman Paddy Larrigan, and features a bold, trumpeting bowl, deep, full bend, and the stout, muscular proportions that define our House Style.

A relatively recent addition to the System range, the System Spigot first appeared in 2015 and was designed to enhance Charles Peterson's patented System design — complete with a deep reservoir to collect excess moisture from the smoke; a graduated bore mouthpiece that funnels the smoke and allows moisture to collect within the reservoir; a sturdy sterling silver military mount, which allows the pipe to be broken down and cleaned without damage or warping; and a our patented P-Lip bit, which draws the smoke upward, thus reducing tongue bite — with the inclusion of a sterling silver spigot and Hinch mount. The pipes themselves are crafted from select-quality bowls and finished in a classic walnut stain, making the System Spigot an excellent accompaniment to the System Standard and Deluxe System lines.

In 1890, after 15 years of handling and repairing pipes while working for the Kapps, Charles Peterson secured a patent in his own name, titled "A certain new and useful improvement in Tobacco-Pipes," which introduced a unique system comprised of a higher draft hole and a moisture reservoir bored into the shank and transition of a briar pipe. Over the next eight years, Charles continued to refine his System, applying for and securing patents for a graduated bore mouthpiece (1891), and a unique button design known today as the P-Lip (1894-1898). Designed to wick moisture away from the smoke, reduce tongue bite, and increase the longevity of the pipe, Peterson's complete System patent sparked a tradition of innovation, one we continue to uphold to this day. The System Pipe is the invisible source behind our unique House Style: our pipes' muscular shanks and transitions, tubular profile, and generous bends. Our overall shaping style has a distinctly antique form because it has remained largely unchanged for over 120 years.

In our System range, you'll find a variety of shapes in myriad finishes, each featuring Charles Peterson's groundbreaking improvements in the realm of tobacco pipes. Whether you're looking for your first pipe or to enhance a robust collection, here you'll find numerous options to suit any taste, all backed by our legacy of craftsmanship.
