Gouda Clay Pipes, form one off the oldest and last remaing clay pipe factory in the Netherlands Gouda Clay Pipes
In the people's ceramic works 'De Star' from the Gouda based family De Jong, simple day to day usable items in ceramics are produced, generally glossy glazed items in yellow or green executions. Year after year, hundreds of these items find their way to the customers.
In 1779 Dirck Goedewaagen becomes a part of an important ceramic pipe-makers guild in the city of Gouda. His grandson falls in love with a dougther of De Jong and he marries her.
In those days tobacco, imported through the Dutch East Indies Company (VOC), is being smoked increasingly. In 1853 Pier Goedewaag buy's 'De Star' factory from his father in law. This becomes the basis of the Goedewaagen company today. More take-overs follow, making Goedewaagen the largest pipe factory in the Netherlands.
When the pipes industry comes to an end Royal Goedewaagen starts to specialize in Gouda Pottery. In the period between 1890 - 1930 Royal Goudewaagen is one of the leading factories of Jugendstil, Art Deco and Art Nouveau in Gouda Pottery, together with factories like The Distel (aquired by Goedewagen in 1923) and The Plazuid (PZH Zuid-Holland) (partial aquired by Goedewaagen in 1965).
