Empire Glassworks Hootie Owl Vapor Bong

Empire Glassworks Hootie Owl Vapor Bong

Hootie is the wisest of the animal-themed oil rigs from Empire Glassworks. It features a borosilicate dichroic glass owl at the center of the main chamber, with a burnt orange accent and smaller owl sculpture on the matching quartz banger.

The glass used to create the owl sculpture is the same used by NASA to create space helmets. Working with it requires an advanced firing process, so the exact result will vary on each piece. In total, the Hootie vapor bongs weighs about 17.5 ounces and stands at 11.5 inches (29.2cm) in height, so it’s a decent-sized piece that hits smooth, but hard. It comes delivered complete with quartz banger and a matching owl-themed carb cap that really makes this piece stand out even more.

The 14.5mm rig is a great example of the American-made quality that comes out of Empire, a California-based glassblowing company. Each piece is hand-made to order, so you can be sure that special care will be taken with your piece. The design is limited, like all of the custom creations from Empire, so it’s wise to pick up this rig while it’s still available.
