No color, no sculpting, no story. A 2" clear bowl with a 14mm joint and a Maria collar around the neck. We stock it because half the people who walk in do not want a statement piece, they want the part that fits, works, and can be replaced without a second thought.
A clear 2" flower bowl with a 14mm joint and a raised Maria collar for grip. Ten on the shelf, single version.
A Maria is that flat ring wrapped around the neck of the bowl. It is one of the oldest details in pipe making and it survives because it is useful. Your fingers stop against it instead of sliding up toward the head, which is the part that gets hot. On a plain clear slide it is the only feature, and it is the right one to keep.
Two inches is the default length for a reason. Short enough that the weight sits close to the joint and does not lean, long enough that there is something to hold. If you have ever had a long bowl slowly tilt out of a joint under its own weight, you know why we keep the simple ones around.
Nothing to break off. No horn, no protruding decoration, just a body and a collar.
Clear shows the state of it. You can see when it needs cleaning instead of finding out through a tight draw.
The Maria does the grip work. One ring, no texture needed anywhere else.
14mm is the easy size. This fitment turns up on more pipes than anything else we sell.
Replaceable without a thought. When it breaks, you order the same thing again.

What ships is a clear flower bowl 2" long with a 14mm joint and a Maria collar at the neck, weighing 6.0 ounces in the box. It is a single version with no colors or sizes to select, it is meant for flower, and we currently hold ten of them.
Seat it, hold it below the collar, and lift straight up. It is a simple part with simple habits. Pack the base loosely so air can move and light the edge of the pack rather than the middle.
This is a good bowl to leave at a friend's house or keep in the car case. Losing a plain one costs you very little and it does the same job as the pretty one on your shelf.
Pro Tip: Rotate two identical plain slides. When one comes out of the pipe it goes straight into a soak jar and the other goes in, so you are never smoking through a dirty bowl or waiting on one to dry.
Practical buyers. You want the part, not the presentation.
People who lose things. A plain slide is a cheap thing to leave behind.
Anyone stocking a spare. Same fitment, no decisions.
New pipe owners. If your piece arrived without a bowl, start here.
The Maria is the flat collar around the neck of the bowl, and it acts as a stop for your fingers. On a 2" slide that small ridge is what keeps your grip low and away from the head. It is a very old detail in pipe making and it stayed because it works.
Any pipe built around a 14mm joint that accepts a bowl of this style. Our record for this item lists the size but not the gender of the joint, so if your setup is unusual, message us first. We would rather check than have you guessing from a photo.
Clear costs less to make and it lets you see the buildup inside the head. That visibility is genuinely useful, since a tight draw is usually residue rather than a bad pack. The trade is that it looks dirty sooner, which is a fair price for knowing where you stand.
Two inches from end to end, which is the standard length for a slide. That keeps the weight sitting close to the joint so the bowl does not lean or lever when it is seated. It also fits any case that already holds a normal sized bowl.
No, the bowl arrives with an open hole and no screen fitted. Add one if your flower is ground fine, because otherwise ash drops through into the water below. Screens are sold separately, cost very little, and save you from cleaning the chamber as often.
Ten units, sold as one version with no color or size menu. That is a small holding, and this is a part people buy in pairs, so it moves. If you want a spare alongside the one you are using, it is worth adding both to the same order.
An isopropyl soak with coarse salt, then a warm rinse. Because the body is clear you can hold it up afterwards and confirm the airway is actually open. If you can still see a dark ring at the neck, put it back in the alcohol rather than scrubbing at it.
Keep a small sealed jar of isopropyl for slides. Drop the bowl in when it darkens, leave it while you do something else, then rinse under warm water and run a pipe cleaner through the hole. Stand it neck down to dry so nothing pools inside the head.
Warning: Never twist a hot bowl out of a joint and never shock it with cold water straight after a session. A fast temperature change stresses the narrow neck right at the collar, and that is where these break when they break.
