最近休息无聊在看这方面的东西，整理一下放这里方便自己翻阅。
Castello的分级正常Castello的分级由低至高为：
Sea Rock
Old Antiquari
Perla Nera
Trade Mark
Castello
Collection
Trade Mark之前"K"愈多，烟斗愈大；Castello之后"K"愈多，木纹愈好。
Collection之后有：
Collection Greatline
Collection Fiammata
Collection Greatline Fiammata
Occhio di Pernice
这些一样, "K"愈多，木纹愈好。Greatline为freehand，其它为"Castello的"传统造型.。
Occhio di Pernice为"好的"cross cut。

1947 - Carlo Scotti begins the company. In the beginning ( 1947 - 1949, maybe 1950 ) the pipes were stamped Mi Reserva ( my reserve ). Later the Reg No was added. This Reg No has nothing to do with shape numbers, but is merely the Castello company trademark.
Vulcanite stems used until? This is an interesting question. From early Castello pipe advertising from the Wally Frank and later Hollco Rohr companies it says the pipe comes with Vulcanite stems. However the photo's appear to have pipes with Lucite stems. To our knowledge no one has yet seen a Vulcanite stemmed Castello with the faux diamond logo inset. To see these adds please visit http://pipepages.com/ , the superb information site by Chris Keene.
The Old Sea Rock and the Sea Rock co-existed. As far as I know, the OSR was US only, imported by Hollco Rohr, and sported the rhinestone. The Sea Rock goes back to the early days.
There was an Antiquari (not Old Antiquari) that was also a Hollco import, and was fume top and rusticated. I think it was only around for a couple of years.
Stem logo's. Castello still occasionally put rhinestones in the mouthpieces, just to maintain it's value as a trademark. It's not on many pieces. I've also seen a couple of pipes with both the white bar and the rhinestone.
Shape numbers. Shape numbers are all 2 digits. A 2 in front indicates a "fancy" interpretation, a 3 in front means that the carving is somehow unique. I don't know when the change was made, but currently, a π symbol is used instead of the 3xx. I've only seen this on Sea Rocks, but that doesn't mean anything.
Hollco Rohr begins distribution in the mid to late 1960's when they take over the Wally Frank Company.
Big Line - stamp used from 1968 - 1972. Replaced by Great Line, although still used on huge pipes.
Colored Lucite stems - used in the 1970's and on occasion today although the material is difficult to find.
Pre K grading. Late 1950's to mid 1960's the pipe carried stamps which indicted sizes. These were as follows; SA, SB, SC, and SS. SA being the smallest and SS the largest.
K grading begins. In 1969 Franco Coppo joins the firm. In the late 1960's and early 1970's the company began the use of the K grading. The upper case large K, was used for non smooth pipes to designate size and for smooth pipes to indicate grain quality. These are also the years that Castello switched from machine made pipes that were hand finished to completely hand made pipes.
Switch from large K to small k in an oval. In 1982 the company changed from the use of the large upper care K grading to a small k within an oval ( 2 k or greater ) or circle for single k grades.
1984 - 1985 Franco Coppo takes over the running of the firm.
1987 - the 40th anniversary Castello begins the number within a castle stamp. The number added to 1947 gives the year of pipe creation. ie 50 within a castle = 1947 + 50 = 1997.
1992 - Carlo Scotti passes away.
US stamp begin in 1997
KINO stamp begin in 2007 - 60th anniversary. Kino is Franco Coppo's nick name.
X - stamped on pipe. This stamp is added to pipes that are picked up directly at the factory by customers. Indicates a "friendship" pipe.
The information gathered on this page comes from a variety of sources on the internet and through emails and conversations. I'd like to Thank these gentlemen for their help; Marco Parascenzo, Franco Coppo ( via Marco ), Greg Pease, Mike Penix, Bob Hamlin, and Mike Davis ( Pipestems Place ) .

制造一个烟斗要达到一系列连贯的步骤 :
1. Coppo 选择天然风干的石楠。
2. Coppo 选择外型明确的石楠木块用以加工并为木块设定特别的形状。
3. 首先石楠木块被钻上洞，接着是制造烟道， 再接着是在茎干上钻出空气通道，这个过程就完成了两条通道的设置。
4. 烟斗嘴被置在茎干上，然后在整个创造工序中烟斗嘴跟茎干始终被成双的保留着，除了烟道是用钻机钻的外，烟斗嘴从始至终都是由纯手工完成的。
5. 接着一个技工开始用砂纸打磨烟斗的外型， 当一个烟斗达到第三级的打磨外型时 , 它会被轻微的抛光。到这一步骤时 , 已经很难看到石楠本来的样子跟上面的颗粒了。
如果颗粒本身分布的很均匀的话 ,那这是烟斗的表面就已经很光滑了。相反如果颗粒分布的不够均匀 , 那就还需要喷沙 , 那被叫做 “Old Antuquari” 或 “Sea Rock”。
6. 打磨烟斗需要三个阶段直到用很细腻的砂纸为止。
7. 如果上面的瑕疵浑然天成 , 那他们就会把它保留下来以突显出石楠的美丽。一些瑕疵深， 另一些很淡，他们会被抛光直到颗粒的本身显现出来。
8. 抛光过程中先用浮石去污 ,接着是用 Buff 打磨的五个步骤并且用 Carnauba 打蜡。
9. 最后手工抛光烟斗 , 然后放在旁边等待买家的进一步要求。
10. 当买家到来后 ,Coppo 在买家提货前亲自给烟斗划分登记并打上印记。

卡斯特罗当然是好东西啊，就是贵的要死！！！！！！！！！！！！

补充 2点
1 castello的 光面 K为纹理小等级 也是后来女婿的事儿 最早 K G 没有 然后是 都是大小的意思。。。不过 意大利的混乱。呵呵
2 烟斗等级的划分 并非由 COPPO做出 而是有 他们的合伙人和技师 貌似又7-9人共同完成，以前。。。现在。。。回头问问厂里 再说。。。

这个是标标准准的十五字不用数了

些贴必顶，首先感谢楼主的贡献，其次有个问题楼主大人~~~看到介绍这个Trade Mark前和后的K都有说明，那Trade Mark这个等级的K的多少代表什么。。

烟斗中的皇帝啊！！！！！！！

还没人来翻译一下啊。。。。

谢谢楼主！吧里就应该多一些这样的帖子啊！
卡斯特罗可是好斗啊！
