Brand New
1927 the staff of that time was posing in front of the beautiful company building, which was unfortunately completely destroyed in World War Two. 1934 vauen received a patent for the activated charcoal filter Dr. Perl junior, which would change the pipe world for ever. Consequently, the new white dot series Kensington already contains the activated charcoal filter on delivery. The Kensington is marked by a grooved, historic-appearing ring on the stem, a discrete recall of the building’s exterior stucco facade or the first closures of the activated charcoal filters of that time. The extraordinary models are colour-fully staged through a highly attractive black-green bicolour look that exudes timeless elegance. The Kensington series is available in 6 different shapes and marks a meaningful stage in the history of the 175-year product world.

Tip number 1
A filter system for pure enjoyment.
Only available from VAUEN
Our “Conex System” ensures an airtight fir by lightly pressing on the mouthpiece.
The result: the smoke which enters your mouth is 100% filtered.
Tip number 2
Full enjoyment from the very beginning
VAUEN pipes don´t have to be slowly broken in over a long time because the wood is protected by a special lining in the tobacco bowl.
Even by temperatures of 300 to 400°C, which occurs when lighting, cannot harm the pipe.
Tip number 3
Achieve natural beauty
To make a pipe even more beautiful, the grain of the pipe is taken into account during production.
There are two classic grain patterns:
the straight grain and the bird´s eye grain.
In order to achieve these, the raw briar blocks from which the pipe is created, needs th be cut along the natural grain course.
Tip number 4
Sandblasting makes the most of the grain of the pipe
A pipe bowl which has a beautiful grain but with inherent imperfections is sandblasted. In the process the softer parts of the surface are washed out the harder relief.
The advantages are, as with rusticated pipes, a greater ruggedness and a cooler smoking pleasure.
