Could it be a Ropp pipe? I did my usual google search and found a few links that mention a Ropp Altesse 99 for sale. there was no picture unfortunately.
Brand created by Eugène-Léon Ropp (1830 - 1907). "GBA Synergie" run by Bernard Amiel (†2008) bought back Ropp in 1988 and owned it until 1991.
The company was taken over by Cuty-Fort Entreprises (Chacom, Jeantet, Vuillard, Jean Lacroix...) in 1994.
