The Peterson Christmas series is one of the Irish marque’s longest running seasonal traditions. Since 2009, the collection has placed familiar Peterson shapes into festive holiday finishes while retaining the practical smoking qualities that made the brand a favorite among pipe smokers. The 2026 release brings broad copper mounts and red and black contrast rustication to a selection of Deluxe System shapes, including the iconic 3s Bent Apple.

The 3s is Peterson’s rounded interpretation of the famous 03 shape. It trades the more tubular bowl associated with the standard 03 for the curved bowl of a traditional Apple, while maintaining the extra stout shank and robust transition that define the Peterson aesthetic. The result is a compact but muscular pipe with a broad bowl, deep bend, and comfortable visual balance.

Peterson’s Deluxe System construction includes an internal moisture reservoir, graduated bore, and military mount. The reservoir collects excess moisture in the shank before it reaches the mouthpiece, while the P Lip stem directs smoke upward across the palate. The copper military mount allows the stem to be removed while the pipe is still warm, making cleaning easier after a smoke.

At 5.68 inches long and approximately 2.08 ounces, the Christmas 2026 3s offers a solid hand feel without becoming overly heavy. Its 1.23 inch chamber depth and 0.79 inch chamber diameter work well with Virginia, Virginia and Perique, English, aromatic, and Burley based mixtures.
