Illadelph – Micro v2 Downstem

Compact, clean, and purpose-built — the Illadelph Micro v2 Downstem represents the next evolution of precision airflow in small-format glass. Handcrafted from high-grade borosilicate glass, this updated version improves stability, diffusion, and fitment for the latest generation of Illadelph Mini-Delph series bongs and ash catchers (2016–present).

While smaller in size, the Micro v2 delivers the same level of performance expected from Illadelph’s full-size pieces. The 14 mm female to 18 mm male connection ensures perfect compatibility with modern Illadelph joints, while the shorter 5-inch length and optimized airflow system create dense, flavorful pulls in a compact form factor.

Summary: Designed for the new generation of Mini-Delph collectors, the Illadelph Micro v2 Downstem delivers elite function in a scaled-down format.
