Piece of the Week | Stephen Colbert Pipe

What could be better than Stephen Colbert’s head on your pipe? On May 8, 2011 Stephen Colbert had his bust scanned with a 3D laser so that “everyone can have their own bust of America’s greatest entertainer and statesman”. I think Stephen would be proud to see that his likeness now graces a marijuana pipe… affectionately known as Stephen Colbert Stoneware.

Stephen Colbert Stoneware Pipe

This pipe can be found on Etsy.com in the Maketshi shop for $23, not a bad price for a functional conversation piece!

A Few Words from the Artist

Maketshi has this to say about their creation:

On May 8, 2011, Stephen Colbert had his head (and bust) scanned with a 3D laser scanner.

That 3D scan was then uploaded to Thingiverse.com and entered into the Public Domain.

I modified the head using the Open Source 3D modeling program Blender, and sent the file to Shapeways to be 3Dprinted (also, the eagle and stars). From these parts, I constructed the original model of the pipe that I used to make my molds.

This pipe is made of mid-fire Cone 6 stoneware ceramic, and has a red, white and blue U.S. flag glaze. It is about 5 inches long.

I charge a flat $5 shipping for all orders shipped to U.S. addresses. Combine orders to save on shipping.

You must be at least 18 to purchase.
