Sacramento News & Review, 06 Dec 2012 – What’s a good holiday present for a stoner? You know, like pipes and stuff? – -St. Chron Nicholas Like pipes and stuff? For pipes, I like hella cool hand-blown glass made by artisans. Find them at a local head shop (duh). You can always get any manner of mass-produced smoking devices there (don’t say "bong" in a head shop; they’ll have to kick you out), but please take a moment to look at the hand-made pieces. In the past 10 years, especially on the West Coast, artists have embraced the softening of marijuana laws and are making all kinds of color-changing dragons and eyeballs and swirly things that don’t even look like pipes yet are pipes. Get your friend one of those-which look great on coffee tables and are terrific conversation starters-and maybe you will inspire someone to start their own art-glass collection.
