[QUOTE="malsped, post: 146640, member: 1584"] Okay, for the record, the origin of the strange mark has been revealed - by Marco Parascenzo of Castello HQ in Rome, no less. He tells me that the pipe was purchased by a shop in Milan, Lorenzi, on the Via Dante, that specialised in luxury goods. Lorenzi stamped the tiny mark on all of its pipes. No date of the purchase was supplied, but it seems the shop has since closed. However, the famed mother store, G. Lorenzi, that has plied trade on the Via Montenapoleone since 1929 is apparently still in business. So, to celebrate the resolution of the mystery, I hereby post another photo link showing (nearly) the whole pipe in question: [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/32921976@N05/5491956350/in/photostream/]http://www.flickr.com/photos/32921976@N05/5491956350/in/photostream/[/url] As Marco concluded in his email to me: "Enjoy that beauty". And I shall. [/QUOTE]
