In the late 19th century Jean Hillen who married into the Knödgen family took over the company and changed the firm in order to manufacture briar pipe. Jean Hillen had 2 sons: Jos Hillen was responsible for sales and Albert Hillen was responsible for the production. After WWII Albert founded the HILSON brand (Hillen and Son) and exported his pipes all over the world. Made in Belgium under Hilson on one side of the shank. Imported Brair over Block Meerschaum beside the #65 on the other side of the shank. Stitching is pretty good. Check all the photos and my feedback.
