(2/4) Nopalli Woodfired Pipe
Our Nopalli Woodfired Pipe is the perfect smoking companion. The hollow interior creates a large chamber for smoke, and the hand-finished high-fire porcelain is durable, easy to clean, and silky to the touch.
We designed our smokeware line with the intention of elevating and artfully reimagining the look and feel of everyday smoking accessories.
Handmade and then hand fired in the down-draft wood kiln, Bisbee (2023)
____________________
Woodfiring is a specialized and labor-intensive form of ceramic firing in which wood is the only fuel used to heat the kiln. The kiln is stoked entirely by hand for the duration of the firing which can last up to a week and a half (day and night) reaching temperatures of ~2400 degrees Fahrenheit, (Cone 12).
The ceramic surfaces achieved through woodfiring are the combined effect of the flame and ash inside the kiln interacting with the clay. The shape and size of the kiln, how the pots are arranged inside the kiln, and how it is tended to during the firing all have a tremendous effect on the final results.
Each wood-fired piece is thus completely unique and functions as a record of its environment during the firing—a window into the kiln during that particular moment in time; both an artifact and a treasure.
Our products are for tobacco use only. By shopping with us you agree that you are of legal smoking age in your area. Buyer is solely responsible for knowing and duly abiding by their local laws in purchasing and in use of this product.
