Peterson have been making churchwarden pipes since 1845 and the shapes are modelled on the old clay tavern pipes . The pipes generally have a small bowl, with a long stem and are exceptional light. These pipes came to be known as churchwardens due to their popularity with the European clergy in the 18th and 19th century. Churchwardens are a house pipe not designed for carrying around in the pocket, exceptionally light and long the shank is strengthened by the addition of a bright nickel band to help protect this delicate pipe. The Peterson D16 green churchwarden pipe bowl is hand stained a rich emerald green colour which shows off the natural briar grain patterns. The pipe is finished with a nickel mount, jet black vulcanite stem and a fish tail mouth piece. The D16 has a tall slightly tapered and canted Dublin bowl with a sweeping curved stem.
