The Sherlock Holmes range of pipes was initially launched in 1987 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s first Sherlock Holmes novel. The series has been developed over the years with new shapes being added. Each shape is named after a character or place associated with the novels. The Sherlock Holmes Professor Terracotta 9mm filter briar pipe is a 3/4 bent pipe with a large billiard bowl. The generous fire hole is balanced by the heavy bowl wall helping to keep the pipe bowl cool. You can comfortably wrap the hand around this elegant traditional pipe. This pipe was designed to take a 9mm filter pipe which are available to buy separately here.

The pipe is hand finished with a warm terracotta stain which highlights the wonderful grain of the premium briar bowl. It has a jet-black vulcanite stem with P-lip and a bright hand-crafted sterling silver band stamped with a silhouette of Basil Rathbone with pipe in mouth.
