Glass Sherlock Handpipe - Inside Out with Fume and Color Work
This traditional dry sherlock handpipe from American Glass Works is a truly a work of art, and it's easy to see just how much work goes into creating this pipe! The bright color work is applied from the inside out, along with fumed areas that change color with heat and build-up over time as you use your pipe. Thorough cleaning returns the fumed areas to their original hue, so you can watch them change color all over again! Along the stem, marias (decorative bulges in the glass) give the pipe a unique silhouette.
Because each pipe is individually handblown by glass artists in an Oregon collective, the pipe you receive will be one-of-a-kind. The colors may vary slightly from what you see in the photo, but the overall design will be the same. Inside out colored glass pipes feature a thick layer of glass that magnifies and absorbs some of the color, creating unique, gorgeous and ethereal effects. The price of inside out glass work usually reflects the additional skill and effort involved on the part of the glass artist.
