Description: 2020 Peterson's Of Dublin Sherlock Holmes Hudson Rusticated Bulldog with .925 Silver Band and 9mm Filtered P-Lip Stem. I bought this as an estate pipe a year ago. It was barely smoked and didn't need anything. I smoked it a couple of times, but I mostly sat in a pipe rack. When I decided to sell it, I reamed the bowl and treated it with alcohol to take away any lingering ghosts. I applied a bowl coating to protect the bowl walls and help build a quick cake. The stem was very lightly showing the beginning of cloudy oxidation. I hand polished it and buffed it on the buffer. Lastly, I polished the silver band. Part of the nomenclature is a little light, but besides that, it pretty mint. It's a beauty and ready for a new home. I try my best to take good pictures from many angles. But, since I am not a professional photographer, the pipes always look better in person. If you require more pictures on a pipe you're interested in, just ask. I try very hard to get the "ghosts" out of every pipe. This is usually possible, but occasionally, no matter how hard I try, and with every method exhausted (salt & alcohol, Everclear & cotton balls, retort with Everclear, ozone treatment), it just isn't possible. It's the nature of the beast, I suppose. God knows what some people smoked and how much of it. I hand sand and polish all my pipe stems rather than on the buffing wheel. It's just my preference. I also always ream the bowls down to briar. I do not leave any cake. I follow it up with an organic food grade bowl coating. If bowl coatings aren't your thing, then it's easily removed with a damp paper towel. I very rarely use tenon expanders on loose stems. Most of the time, bees wax does the trick just fine. I prepare all my pipes to my preferences. If they aren't your preferences, I'm sorry but you don't have to buy any. This is how I prefer it to be done. You don't have to agree and again, you don't have to buy any. If any significant repairs were done, then it will definitely be stated in detail. All pipes that I sell as refurbished, refreshed, repaired, restored, etc. will be in ready to smoke condition. Just add your tobacco of choice, and you're ready to go. The prices I ask for my pipes are a reflection of the work that went into them and the materials/supplies used. This is not a cheap process and can be very time-consuming. I offer my services on pipes so anyone interested can contact me for more information. I also buy pipes. It can be 1 pipe or many. Just contact me to work it out the details.
