Description
Peterson Barley Spigot Sterling Silver With Acrylic Cumberland Stem Shape 05 AKA Bell Shaped Calabash
The Peterson Barley Spigot is a premium, limited-series pipe featuring hand-selected, high-grade briar with a natural, unstained virgin finish and a crisp sandblast. It is characterized by luxurious sterling silver spigot mounts and warm, natural briar tones, paired with comfortable, Cumberland-patterned acrylic fishtail stems.
Key Features & Aesthetics
- The Barley Finish: This finish uses a crisp, tan sandblast on “virgin” briar stummels that have been specifically selected for their lack of imperfections. It showcases the wood’s organic grain in sharp relief with only a subtle natural stain.
- Sterling Silver Spigot: The hallmark of this line is the hallmarked sterling silver spigot mount, which reinforces both the shank end and the stem base. This allows the pipe to be disassembled even while hot without risking damage.
- Unique Patina: Because of the natural, light-colored finish, the briar will gradually darken and gain character as it is smoked, creating a beautiful contrast against the bright silver over years of use.
- Stem Details: These pipes typically feature a Cumberland-patterned acrylic stem or high-quality vulcanite, depending on the specific release, finished with a comfortable fishtail bit.
The “05” Shape (Calabash)The 05 is widely considered one of Peterson’s most legendary and “quintessential” designs.
- Trumpet Rim: The bowl flares dramatically at the rim, giving it a distinctive bell or trumpet profile.
- Cinched Waist: It features a narrow “waistline” that makes it extremely easy to grasp and ergonomic in the hand.
- Muscular Shank: True to the Peterson “House Style,” the 05 has a thick, substantial shank that balances the flaring bowl.
