I've come to be interested in pipes after inheriting a sizable collection. It's taken a while to get them sorted and most of the names I've found somewhere on the net. However one of them has stumped me. The stamp is quite faint but I've made out Fleur de Coram.
Judging by the positioning there might be a word that's completely rubbed off after de.
Grateful for any information.

I can only read it with an eye glass (x3.5) even a high magnification macro lens gets only this - practically nothing

Maybe Fleur de lis, it was a GBD French made sub brand. But don't look like that pipe.
Your pipe looks a lot like an old Castello that I have. I think that meybe some artisan from Cantú.

Thanks very much for that, I thought it was the answer to my problem.
Unfortunately a bit of Googling found that all Fleur de Lis pipes were meerschaum lined which this isn't.
Unless anyone knows otherwise.
