The first Peterson Sherlock Holmes pipe, the Original, debuted in 1987, one hundred years after the eponymous detective made his literary debut in A Study in Scarlet. The Original Series offered seven shapes, each taking its name from a person, place, or feature of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novels and stories: Original (Sherlock), Baskerville, Baker Street, Deerstalker, Squire, Professor, and Watson. Today the range includes an additional seven shapes under the Return of Sherlock Holmes Series: Rathbone, Hudson, Mycroft, Le Strade, Milverton, Strand, and Hansom.
The Peterson Sherlock Holmes pipes are available in rusticated, sandblasted, Ebony, Heritage, and the classic Terracotta finish. From time to time, the factory will produce a natural variant with exceptional grain. Each piece features a sterling silver band.
