On offer is a vintage pea whistle, measuring approximately 3 inches long and still in good working condition. This classic design features a bulbous chamber with a central sound window and a built-in “pea” (ball) that creates the iconic trilling tone — often associated with early police forces, referees, and maritime or military use.

With its curved mouthpiece and attached suspension ring, this whistle is both functional and highly collectible. The streamlined silhouette and turned details suggest it could date from the early to mid-20th century, and it’s crafted in the traditional “Metropolitan” form.
