The stripes start at the top of the head and twist all the way to the mouthpiece. That's what makes the pipe look like one continuous design instead of a colored stem.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat colors are in each swirl?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eRed mixes red, lavender and green. Orange mixes orange, teal and lime. Blue mixes cobalt, peach and sky blue. Teal \u0026amp; Green mixes teal, lime and blush pink. Each option is named for its strongest color, and all four have clear glass between the stripes.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eIs the Blue option as bright as the others?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eBlue is the calmest of the four, with deep cobalt balanced by soft peach and pale sky blue. It reads cooler and more relaxed than Red or Orange. If you want bold, pick Red. If you want easygoing, Blue is the one we'd suggest.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCan you see through the swirl?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePartly, because clear glass shows between the frit stripes. You can see some smoke and resin through the gaps, but not as clearly as on a fully clear pipe. It's a middle ground between see-through linework and solid frit (we think it's the best of both).\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eIs 5 inches a good everyday size?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eYes, 5 inches is the classic everyday spoon size. The bowl holds a full solo session, and the pipe still fits in a jacket pocket or small bag. It's long enough that the smoke isn't scorching hot by the time it reaches you.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eHow often should I clean a frit swirl pipe?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eGive it an alcohol and salt soak every week or two to keep the stripes bright. Frit stripes have a slight texture that resin likes to grab, so regular soaks keep the colors bright. Waiting too long means a longer soak and more work with a pipe cleaner.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDo you ship on weekends?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOrders placed by 2 PM Pacific, Monday to Friday, ship the same day with tracking.
