Got a KK sea rock prince direct from a dealer in Italy. Some of the nomenclature I don't understand, wondering if anyone can help.
The standard stampings are there: 'Castello sea rock briar' - 'KK' in an oval - 'kino' in an oval - 'made in Cantu Italy' - 'Hand made Castello' on the ferrule with no # designation
There is no shape stamp which isn't too uncommon, it's a classic prince which is the shape # 24, but what IS there is the letter 'N' rather than the 'US' stamp (Iknow I bought it overseas but do not know what 'N' stands for) followed by the pi symbol and the number 6. What is odd is that this pipe does not have the pi shape oddities on the surface of the pipe, looks like a perfectly normal sea rock.
Any help on 'N' '6' or pi without the smooth circular variations?
