3.5″ Dichro Color Swirl Fume Chillum

The 3.5" Dichro Color Swirl Fume Chillum is a compact glass one-hitter built for flower smokers who want something portable without sacrificing visual appeal. At 3.5 inches, it slips into a pocket or small bag while the dichroic glass swirl and fumed finish add color-shifting effects that change with use and angle. Grab one for quick sessions on the go or as a backup piece that doesn't look like an afterthought.

Best For

This chillum works for flower smokers who prioritize portability and speed. If you're bouncing between spots, taking quick breaks, or just prefer a one-hitter over a full hand pipe, this fits the bill. The dichro swirl and fume finish appeal to people who want something visually interesting without spending on elaborate worked glass. It's also solid as a backup piece or a loaner for friends who inevitably forget their gear.

How It Works

Chillums are one of the simplest smoking devices: a straight tube with a bowl on one end and a mouthpiece on the other. Pack a small amount of ground flower into the wider bowl end, light while inhaling from the narrow mouthpiece end, and clear the bowl in one or two hits. The direct airflow means you taste the flower without filtration, so quality material shines through.

The dichroic glass layer sits under the clear outer layer, creating a color-shifting effect as light passes through. The fume finish — silver or gold particles vaporized onto the glass — darkens with resin over time, adding depth to the swirl pattern. The color marble near the mouthpiece provides a textured grip point and a visual accent.

Cleaning is straightforward. Let it cool after use, then soak in isopropyl alcohol to dissolve resin buildup. Rinse with warm water and dry before the next session. Regular cleaning keeps airflow clear and lets the dichro colors pop.

Fit & Compatibility

This chillum is a standalone piece with no joint or attachment points. It works with ground flower only — not concentrates or liquids. The 3.5-inch length fits comfortably in one hand and pairs well with a small grinder for prep. If you're used to pipes with carb holes, note that chillums don't have one — you control airflow by covering the bowl partially or fully after lighting.

FAQ

How much flower does this hold?

The bowl fits roughly 0.1 to 0.2 grams of ground flower, depending on grind consistency and how tight you pack it. It's designed for single-hit or two-hit sessions, not extended smoking.

Does the color marble serve a function or is it just decorative?

It's both. The marble adds a textured grip point so your fingers don't slip, and it visually marks the mouthpiece end. The dichro swirl already adds color, but the marble gives you something tactile to hold onto.

Will the fume finish fade or chip off?

Fume is applied during the glassmaking process and becomes part of the glass itself, so it won't chip or peel. Over time, resin buildup will darken the fume, making the colors richer. Cleaning brings back some of the original brightness, but the finish stays intact.

Can I use this for concentrates?

No. Chillums are designed for flower. Concentrates need proper heat and airflow control, which this straight-tube design doesn't provide. For concentrates, check out nectar collectors or a proper dab rig setup.

How do I clean resin out of the narrow tube?

Soak the chillum in isopropyl alcohol (90% or higher works best) for 15-30 minutes, then use a pipe cleaner or small brush to scrub the inside. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and let it dry. For stubborn buildup, add coarse salt to the alcohol for extra abrasion.

Is 3.5 inches too short for comfortable use?

It's compact, so the smoke path is short and unfiltered. If you're used to longer pieces or water pipes, the hit might feel hotter. The tradeoff is portability. If you want something longer with cooling, look at a bubbler or a larger hand pipe.

Can I choose the color swirl pattern?

Colors vary by stock, and dichroic glass is hand-applied, so each piece is slightly different. Contact us before ordering if you have a specific color preference, and we'll let you know what's currently available. The dichro effect means the colors shift depending on lighting and angle, so even similar patterns look different in use.
