This pipe was found on: Etsy: Heady Wire Wrap Tobacco Pipe

Wire Wrap Dichro Gem Pipe (aka Heady Wire Wrap Tobacco Pipe)

Wire wraps are all the rage these days, with artists turning out sicker and sicker pieces all the time. I swear I don’t go a week without seeing a new wrap that just blows my freakin’ mind. With so many artists getting in on the game though, it’s the artists who can think outside the box who really stand out in the crowd.

I give you one such example of innovation and originality: the wire wrapped pipe!

An audible, “Whoah!” escaped me as soon as I laid eyes on this. Did it incite such a reaction in you? It’s one thing to see an artistic looking pipe, it’s another to see one that melds two hip art mediums into one. This piece is beautifully wrapped, with intricate spirals and close attention to detail, and it encases three heady glass gems, two of which are gorgeous dichro pieces.

Not only is this one-of-a-kind because of the very nature of wire-wrapping, but this is a pretty original idea and you’ll be hard pressed to find anyone else with such a pipe.

In Their Own Words:

This is a unique piece of functional art, no one on the block will have one! Pipe was hand blown by the artist of Adapt Designs. The wrapping was completed painstakingly by myself. Featuring copper and plated copper wire and 2 dichro glass cabs.
