This pipe is rather unique. It is fumed, which means it will change colors the more you smoke it. Everyday you use it, it will change. Now, most pipes that are fumed will change the entire pipe to one uniform color. This pipe will also change colors, however it will be in a swirl pattern. Keep in mind, the pipe in the picture is before color changing and may look boring, but after you use it it will completely change! More info:Bead on right.
