Grenci Pipes

[orlandofurioso]

Greetings to you all !
Is there a way to distinguish the Domenico pipes from the Vincenzo ones ?
The nomenclature looks to be about the same.

I don't know the brand. Who sells them?

Hello MSO,

It is not so much a brand; Domenico Grenci ( deceased 1998 ) was a reknown Italian pipe carver :

After his passing away, his son Vincenzo took over.

He was old school , like Leonardo Airaghi, aka Dino da Campione :

I own some of his pipes, very odd.

Apperently Italian pipes are currently not much in fashion
Too bad.
