== Dating Pipes == | |||
Dating Ser Jacopo pipes is somewhat difficult, because Ser Jacopo uses no date codes. Early pipes featured a red coral dot on the mouthpiece, sometimes found encircled in a silver ring. This was discontinued at some point in the 1980's, and the mouthpiece logo was changed to a sterling silver letter "J". On the Gemma series of pipes, the mouthpiece logo is a precious stone surrounded by a silver ring. | |||
