Are Glass Pipes Just for Looking Great?With all
of this talk about the glass pipes looking
artistic and beautiful we are overlooking their
most important element. These pipes are
designed to give a smooth even smoking
experience. The beauty they display is really a
bonus to their underlying function. The
different bulges and shapes can give the smoker a
variety of levels of coolness in their smoking
experience. A pipe created with added open areas
slows the smokes passages and allows for greater
cooling. A pipe with a smooth slender body will
pass the smoke quickly and maintain greater
levels of heat. As you start evaluating which
pipe to choose does not get caught up in choosing
by beauty alone. Keep in mind your main purpose
of buying glass pipes is for the best smoking
experience. Choose the shape, length, and style
to match your own tastes for smoking, and then
choose a color option you will enjoy for years.
