FD Pipe ID?

Got this Zulu in a box of estates a while back. Good looking pipe, smokes well, nice enough grain…. Anybody know who made it?

It is stamped “FD” and “Handmade Denmark”.’

Looks like it might be Jesper of Denmark. I'll do more looking.

That’s sort of what I thought. And the F is a J!

Thanks for the sleuthing!

That's an interesting take on the zulu shape which usually has a slightly bent stem.

Nice presentation of a Zulu pipe.

That's an interesting take on the zulu shape which usually has a slightly bent stem.

Now that you mention, it is an unusual interpretation. Most I see are not only slightly bent but the stems appear to be a bit more muscular. This, on the other hand, reminds me of the Merchant Service Bing’s Favorite, with its long delicate profile.
