Why would someone make something like that and not sign it? This must be the humblest and/or most private pipe maker ever.Hahaha, it's looking that way! I have a floating volcano I've been trying to identify for months that has proved to be exactly that as well

MYSTERY SOLVED! It’s an Andre Kharitonov.
Congrats ! Beautiful growth rings and sap !
I've a Liverpool that I bought directly from Andrey that arrived unstamped as well. I never did ask him why he didn't stamp it.
Maybe he doesn't have a stamp? Hard to get in some places?
@alaskanpiper
You beat me to it. Yes, it is one of Andrey's (aka Odissey) pipes. Pipe #4421. Made in 2021.
I have a large number of his pipes and Andrey did not have a makers mark stamp in 2021. He started stamping pipes in 2022 (old stamp) to current (new stamp).
Does your pipe have a traditional tenon or a stainless steel tube in the stem?

A tip from a fellow pipe smoker on Instagram (not sure if he has a profile here or not).
I have asked Andrey to join PM. He is not currently on this forum.
I was referring to the pipe smoker who gave me the tip on Instagram, but good to know regardless!
