There were likely other factories as well, as in 1838 August Kersten from Rees (Germany) bought the factories from Heinric Oldenkott in Elten (Germany) and Weesp (Holland), although it is not clear whether these were part of the original Oldenkott company. The German company increased rapidly and became one of the largest German tobacco companies. In 1929 the factories from Hermann Oldenkott in Ahaus and Neuss (Germany) were bought by the German Oldenkott company. The German company produced pipes starting in 1932. In 1972 the German company was bought by the Dutch company Niemeijer. Tobacco production ceased in 1974 and only pipes were made afterward. In 1987 the German pipe company was bought by the Kersten family again, but closed in 1992. The pipes were machine made and in general of mediocre quality.[1] The most important pipes of Oldenkott were the so called "Porsche Design" pipes. [2] The bowl was turned like the motor block of a racing car and was lacquered with a silver-grey color. Today these special pipes are very rare and expensive. In spite of the apparent quality of both Oldenkott and VAUEN pipes, they are known as good smokers. Oldenkott is an early 20th century German brand by Henry Oldenkott. His factory in Hallen closed in April 1982, with some of the workder moving to VAUEN. Oldenkott made pipes with and without filters. It was in this company that Porsche pipes were produced.[3] In 2012 the rights to the word and figurative mark Henric’s Oldenkott Senior & Comp. were acquired by Alexander Strähnz, Cologne, with the aim of resuming pipe production, initially on a small scale. [4] At the Intertabak trade fair, he made contact with a company from Italy, which is now supposed to bring the Oldenkott pipes back to life. Therefore, the appearance will be based on the pipes from Rees. Overall, they are getting a little smaller, the shank more elegant and narrow. The premium quality models also receive a red and white dot as a mark, which used to be a mark of the Oldenkott pipes. [5] As part of the exhibition on the 175th anniversary of the tobacco and cigar factory Oldenkott, which took place in the Koenraad-Bosman-Museum, the pipes were offered in three different versions: sandblasted, dark polished or light stained.
