The 2" 18MM Color Worked Joint Flower Bowl is a compact, handcrafted glass slide built for people who care as much about how their setup looks as how it hits. It’s made for flower lovers running 18mm rigs who want a reliable bowl that packs easy, clears clean, and actually matches the rest of their glass. At about 2 inches (51mm) tall with a color-worked joint and spiral artwork, it brings legit heady vibes to even a simple daily driver.
Each bowl features a sturdy peg handle for easy grabs and pull-outs, so you’re not burning your fingers or fumbling slippery glass when you’re mid-sesh. The 18mm male joint slides straight into any standard 18mm female joint, giving you a quick upgrade without having to replace your whole piece.
Why You’ll Like It
- Add some personality to your piece — full-color spiral work and a color-worked joint instantly level up plain clear glass.
- Comfortable, cool pulls — the 2 inch (51mm) height gives you some distance from the heat so your fingers aren’t getting cooked when you clear it.
- Easy grabs mid-sesh — the color peg handle gives you a solid grip, even when things get a little hazy.
- Drop-in upgrade — 18mm male joint works with most standard 18mm water pipes and tubes, so swapping from a basic bowl is painless.
- Built to be used, not babied — solid glass construction is ready for daily use, not just to sit in a display case.
- Easy to keep looking fresh — simple wipe or soak cleaning keeps the color work shining and the airflow wide open.
Best For
This bowl is made for flower smokers who already have a favorite 18mm tube and want to give it some character without going full custom piece. It’s a great pick if you like rotating a few slides on your shelf alongside your other go-to smoke shop products and want one that stands out in the lineup.
If you’re the friend who actually cares about clean glass and smooth draws, this is that “little upgrade” that makes your whole setup feel dialed in.
How to Use It
Using this bowl is as straightforward as it gets. Slide the 18mm male joint into the 18mm female joint on your bong or water pipe, and you’re ready to load up. The bowl shape is made for flower — enough room for a solid pack without being a huge party bowl that’s hard to clear.
When it’s time to clear your piece or pass it along, grab the color peg handle instead of the glass above the joint. That handle is there so you can pull cleanly without getting too close to the hot section. If you’re setting up a full station, parking it on a nonstick dab mat between rips keeps ash and resin off the table.
Over time, resin will build up like any glass bowl. Let it cool before you mess with it. For quick maintenance, tap out the ash and use a tool or cotton swab to knock loose anything stubborn. For deeper cleans, a short soak in isopropyl alcohol, rinse with water, then fully dry will have it hitting like new again.

Fit & Compatibility
This bowl is designed specifically for 18mm female joints. If your bong or tube takes an 18mm male downstem or joint, this will slide right in and sit snug. If your current slide is smaller (like 14mm), you’ll need an adapter — but if it’s already an 18mm bowl, this is a direct swap.
It’s a solid match for beakers, straight tubes, and most standard water pipes that run a classic 18mm setup. If you’re pairing it with other glass in your stash or packaging up flower for later, you might also want to keep your stash fresh in proper glass jars & packaging instead of random containers.
Cleaning & Care
Let the bowl cool completely before cleaning or handling it heavily. For light cleanup, dump out the ash and wipe away surface residue with a swab or cloth. For a deeper refresh, soak the bowl in isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and let it dry fully before putting it back into your piece.
If you’re the type to keep your gear spotless, it plays really well with simple storage and cleaning setups — toss it in with your other small parts and storage & packaging gear so it doesn’t get knocked around or lost in a drawer.
FAQ
- Will this fit my bong?
If your bong or water pipe has an 18mm female joint, this will fit right in. If your current bowl is labeled 18mm and slides into the piece (not over it), this is the same style. - How big is the bowl itself?
The piece stands about 2 inches (51mm) tall. The bowl is sized for everyday flower packs — big enough for a solid personal rip or sharing a few hits without being a huge party bowl that’s hard to clear. - Is each bowl exactly the same color?
No — the fun part of color-worked glass is that each piece has its own spiral and color layout. Expect the same style and quality, but slight variations in the exact pattern, just like other artisan-style bongs & rigs or heady pieces. - How should I clean it without damaging the color work?
The color is worked into the glass, not painted on, so normal cleaning is fine. Let it cool, soak in isopropyl alcohol if needed, rinse with water, and allow it to dry before reuse. Avoid dropping it into hard containers so you don’t chip the glass. - Can I use this for concentrates?
This is a flower bowl, so it’s really meant for dry herb. For concentrates you’ll want a proper banger, dab rig, or even nectar collectors and dedicated tools that can actually handle the heat and consistency of oils. - Is the peg handle strong, or will it snap off?
The peg handle is made from solid glass and built to be used — you can grab it confidently to pull the bowl. Like any glass, treat it with some respect and avoid knocking it against hard surfaces, but under normal use it’s sturdy. - What else do I need to go with this?
If your piece is already 18mm, you’re good to go — just drop this in. If you’re building out a full setup, consider grabbing some basic accessories like cleaning plugs, brushes, or tools so your new bowl and bong stay clean and hit the way they should.
