I use the Savinelli dry system stem when I smoke mine with a filter ! Excellent smoke and very comfortable pipe !

I’m keeping my eye out for one.

Thanks, that helps narrow it down. I think the 314 might be what I’m after.

I'm selling a 314 system standard, smooth finish. Shipping from Canada. DM me if you want to see it before I list it.

Apologies for the shameless sales pitch

Tempting offer but I just snagged a Halloween 314. Thanks though!

The Peterson Halloween 2025 pipe is available on Smokingpipes.eu. It looks strikingly like the Dunmore series but in all black. While I am not a fan of Seasonal pipes generally, this one seems to have a simple elegance or formality to it not seen in some time, in my opinion -- like a tuxedo pipe.

Too much black, mate, for my liking.

But the all black does offer something.
And FWIW, the acrylic on acrylic gives a nice tight fit.

Not thrilled with it in the ferrule nor the stem.

But the great news is I’ve got a very cool pipe that’ll be crossing the pond shortly

But do you really want it to be lonely?

I used to agree until I got my Vauen Olaf bent egg sandblast and they really are workhorse pipes that require less care. Now I appreciate them mainly for their ruggedness and durability.

My next Pete will be black and chrome, like my scooter.

Got around restoring this beauty

 

[FLDRD]

The briar looks great, but to my eyes it looks like you lost most of the gold? That's what I was concerned about with mine, so I moved it along.

I will be playing with some gold and silver plating soon, for the lighters and I will see what I can do about it. This is one is for me so I guess at some point it will loose all of its plating.

If your going to get into this hobby, you really ought to get serious

First play the serious... Maybe... I am still waiting for the 48h day or cloning to become a thing..

Silver and gold plating is quite the undertaking!

Silver and gold plating is quite the undertaking!

For my own sake , I hope you are at least a little but wrong here, but I have 0 experience so I guess we will see. From researching it doesn't look so bad.

Good luck, I admire your fortitude!

Question for the Pete guys with the Halloween pipes coming out soon - I like my 302 but I’d like a shape that is shorter and hangs closer to the chin. Is the 317 super duper tiny? I know it’s got a much smaller bowl but it’s hard to get a feel for how it hangs (so to speak). I thought maybe 317 or 303, or say screw it and get a big B42 anyway because I think the shape is more beautiful.

B42 is half-bent, so it cannot be "closer to chin".
312 or 314 could be my choice (I passed Halloween, however)

they started production in 1991, mine is actually from 1990.

I have the same story on several pipes, including POY 2017 with hallmark of 2016. I have no clue why, nut I suppose, production could be started some earlier ;-)

My POY'25. 'Magpie disease'. Again.

And another 'magpipe disease'. Peterson XL81 Silver lid, unsmoked. On a way home, will get it today. Bargain deal (as low as USD300).
