Ever heard of them? I have a pipe that is supposedly made by them according to www.pipephil.eu, but can't find much about them.

I can only find a couple of very short references in the following two books.
1. Page 145 in Jose Manuel Lopes 'Pipes Artisans and Trademarks'.
2.Page 238 in Richard Carleton Hackers 'Rare Smoke,The Ultimate Guide to pipe collecting'.
