The Luxor was founded in 1925 in Heidelberg by Heinrich Hebborn. The company official name is H. Hebborn & Co. but it is universally known by the name of its main brand; besides this, maintaining an inspiration to the themes of ancient Egypt, it also used as a sub-brand Sphinx. In 1938, the company moved production facilities in Cologne.
In the '40s, the company invented a telescopic piston filler with two concentric sections which allowed to have a much shorter mechanism, resulting in more space for the ink reservoir. The mechanism was mounted on a model called Teleskop, and it seems that it is the same one that was later adopted also by Montblanc for its flagship models of the series 130 and 140.
