My grandfather gave me his pipes

[maevert]

Hi all, I'm new to this forum (and to pipe smoking!)
Today my grandfather gave me his two pipes, but I'm having troubles identifying them.
One of the pipes is billiard shaped and has the mathematical sign "pi" (3.14), along with the writing "Fumo Popular"

I wonder if anyone know of this brand?

Castello has a pi designation for shapes/designs that are out of the ordinary. Not sure about Fumo Popular though.

Can't help with the stamps, but nice legacy!

I'm with Peck, Castello is the only maker I know using the Pi reference. Pop up a few pix.

Thanks for your answers so far!
Here is the full set he gave me:

This is the pipe I'm talking about:

It would cost a little bit, but I would seriously consider sending these to Walker Briars or one of the

other professional pipe repair people for a complete restoration. They will look like new, and it will

honor these important gifts.

That doesn't look like a Castello. Any other markings on the stem or adornments.

 

[maevert]

No other markings I'm afraid.

I have a feeling it's made in Denmark, probably around 1970's or 1980's.

That first pipe looks a lot like a Grabow Savoy.

Can't help you on the pipe ID, but that is a very cool pipe roll-up!

I was thinking the same thing
