The 4.5" Wrap & Rake Bubble Trap Hand Pipe is a 4.5 inch borosilicate glass stand-up pipe with a flat base, a built-in bubble trap, a maria ring at the neck, and a wavy wrap and rake pattern from top to bottom.
Set a regular spoon down mid-session and it rolls, tips over, or dumps ash on the table. This one just stands there, upright on its flat base.
It's also smarter inside than a plain pipe. A bubble trap (a small glass chamber built into the piece) catches ash and loose bits of flower before they reach your lips.
Then there's the color work: wrap and rake waves over every inch. We picked it up because it's a handy shape with real glass skill on it, and it comes in ten colors.
Red, Orange and Yellow are the warm side of the lineup, each with white raked waves over bright color.
Green is a fresh lime shade, and Aqua is a pale, glassy blue-green.
Sky Blue is a light, clear blue, while Cobalt is the deepest and boldest of the ten.
Pink is a soft salmon shade.
White is mostly clear glass with white raked lines (the most subtle choice), and Smoke uses charcoal gray waves over clear glass for a low-key, grown-up look.
Each pipe is hand-worked, so wave spacing and color spread vary a little piece to piece.

The 4.5" Wrap & Rake Bubble Trap Hand Pipe is a 4.5 inch borosilicate glass stand-up pipe with a flat base, a dry bubble trap and a maria ring at the neck. The bowl sits in the rounded base, and the whole piece is covered in a wrap and rake pattern. It comes in ten colors: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Aqua, Sky Blue, Cobalt, Pink, White, Smoke. It is made for dry herb.
We pack the bowl loosely with medium-ground flower, hold the pipe by the neck just below the maria, light the edge and pull slowly. When you're done, set it on its base and let the bowl cool where it stands.
The trap needs nothing filled or adjusted (it just works).
Pro Tip: Knock the ash out over a tray before the bowl cools completely. Warm ash falls out easier, and less of it ends up drifting into the trap chamber.
Tabletop smokers: If your pipe lives on a coffee table, a piece that stands up is a real upgrade.
Anyone tired of ash in their mouth: The bubble trap keeps loose bits where they belong.
Color pickers: Ten options means there's a shade for nearly any setup, from loud Red to quiet Smoke.
Worth Noting: The bubble trap is dry, so it won't cool smoke the way a bubbler or water pipe does. And at 4.5 inches with a wide base, it's chunkier in a pocket than a regular spoon.
Our own routine is simple: we clean the trap more often than the rest, since that's where ash collects. Once it's cool, pour 91% isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt in through the bowl, cover the openings, and shake so the mix swirls through the trap. Rinse with warm water and dry it standing up.
For heavy buildup, soak it in alcohol first (an hour does it).
Warning: Let the glass cool completely before cleaning. Hot glass that hits cold water can crack, especially at thick spots like the base. Never put it in the dishwasher.
Compare it with our bubblers if you want water in the mix, see more shapes in our hand pipes, grab a grinder for an even pack, and keep the trap clear with our cleaning supplies.
