Old Pothead

The Old Pothead

Legend has it that smoking this most complex schmauching apparatus will instantaneously beam you back to the Victorian ages between steam engines and smoking chimneys.

A truly unique pipe, designed around the steampunk inspired idea of a cooling coil, which at 50cms has an enormous impact on this one.

The Old Pothead is crafted from three woodturned pieces of Black Walnut or White Oak Wood, which are very durable species, featuring great tones of coffee with caramelly contrasts in walnut, and honey to amber with strong structures in oak.
The pieces are held together by a cooling coil handmade from brass or copper and fitted exactly to the bowl.

The smoke passes the charcoal filter firstbefore entering the cooling spiral and finally, the mouthpiece.
Due to the long way and the coil measuring only 3mms inside, this pipe is characterized by a slightly  higher resistance when toking – and, of course, exceptionally cool and mild smoke.

Cleaning the tube will only rarely be necessary – if you feel it’s clogged, we recommend rinsing it with isopropyl alcohol a couple of times, e.g. using small syringe. It’ll be good as new within minutes.
