The Mothership Silicone Hex Mat in Artifact is an 8-inch food-grade platinum-cured silicone dab mat featuring Mothership Glass's Artifact artwork debossed directly into the surface. The Artifact colorway draws from Mothership's mythology-inspired aesthetic, rendering ancient-object and relic imagery in high contrast against the silicone base — one of the brand's more archival-feeling designs. The anti-skid base keeps your rig locked in place during sessions, and the hexagonal shape connects modularly with other Mothership Hex Mats to build a full custom dab station. Available at Angie's Boutique, Los Angeles' authorized Mothership Glass dealer since 1990.

Mothership Hex Mat — Artifact
Mothership Glass built their reputation on functional art — rigs and accessories where the craftsmanship is as important as the performance. The Hex Mat series extends that philosophy to your dab station surface. Each mat features original Mothership artwork debossed directly into platinum-cured silicone — the same food-grade material used in commercial kitchen equipment, rated to 500°F and fully dishwasher-safe.
The Artifact design references Mothership Glass's deep visual lore — the kind of imagery that appears across their most sought-after limited rigs and caps. For collectors who follow the brand's narrative art universe, the Artifact mat is a natural extension of that aesthetic onto the functional surface of your dab station.
At Angie's Boutique, 838 N Broadway in Downtown LA, we've carried Mothership Glass since they established themselves as the benchmark for premium functional art. Browse the full Mothership Glass collection or explore all dab mats for comparison options.
⭐ Who This Product Is For / Not For
Ideal For:
- Mothership Glass collectors who want accessories that extend their rig's visual universe to the full station
- Dabbers who want a heat-resistant, non-slip surface that can handle daily torch and hot-glass contact
- Buyers building a modular Mothership dab station using multiple connected hex mats
- Gift buyers who want a meaningful Mothership accessory at an accessible price point
Not Recommended For:
- Buyers who just need a basic protective surface — a standard silicone mat costs significantly less
- Users who want a large mat — at 8 inches, the Hex Mat is sized for a single rig station, not a full table cover
⚠️ Known Limitations
- 8-inch diameter covers a single rig station — pair with additional hex mats to cover a wider surface
- Silicone can absorb strong odors over time — rinse with isopropyl alcohol after heavy concentrate sessions
- Debossed design is recessed, not raised — resin can collect in the grooves and requires a cotton swab to clean thoroughly

Common Questions About the Mothership Artifact Hex Mat
Is the Artifact design printed on or permanently part of the silicone?
The Artifact design is debossed — permanently worked into the silicone mold during manufacturing. It's not a surface print, sticker, or applied graphic, which means it cannot peel, fade, or scratch off. The design will look the same after hundreds of ISO cleanings and dishwasher cycles as it does on day one.
Can I connect multiple Mothership Hex Mats together?
Yes — that's the point of the hexagonal shape. The flat edges of each Mothership Hex Mat align perfectly with the edges of other Mothership Hex Mats, allowing you to build a continuous modular dab station surface. You can mix and match different colorways to create a custom layout across your entire setup.
Is this the same silicone quality as Mothership's premium accessories?
Yes. Mothership uses the same platinum-cured food-grade silicone across their entire accessory line. Platinum-cured silicone is the highest grade available — it's non-toxic, non-reactive with concentrates and ISO, rated to 500°F, and maintains its integrity through repeated cleaning cycles. The Hex Mat uses identical material to Mothership's other silicone products.
How does the Artifact design compare to other Mothership Hex Mat colorways?
The Artifact design sits in Mothership's archival, relic-inspired visual territory — less figurative than the character-based designs like Giver, and less cosmic than Strange Deities. It appeals most to collectors who are drawn to the brand's mythology-and-history aesthetic direction rather than the more surreal or organic designs in the lineup.
