The Empire Glassworks Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe is the garden piece: 4.5 inches of deep green borosilicate wrapped in a vine, with raised white daisies, a sculpted ladybug, a small dark beetle and flower implosion marbles set into the body. It is a dry flower pipe with a fixed bowl, a left-side carb and no joint, priced at $49.99 at Angies Boutique in Los Angeles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- 4.

Look closely at the deep green body and you find small domes set flush into the glass, each holding a flower formed inside it — yellow and green, red, blue. Those are implosion marbles, and they are the reason the Empire Glassworks Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe stands apart from a decorated tube: the flower is not on the surface of the glass, it is inside it. Around the marbles, raised white daisies, a red-and-black ladybug beside the bowl, a vine running the length and a small dark beetle complete the scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Garden Critters Small belongs to Empire's dry-pipe line built around at-risk habitats, with each piece depicting a specific ecosystem — a forest floor for the Bug's Life, a reef for the Great Barrier Reef, a garden here. Empire Glassworks was established in 2013 by a team that came to pipes from making glass figurines for Disney. Functionally the pipe is a standard spoon: fixed bowl, carb on the left side, no joint.

On the Empire Glassworks Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe, small glass domes are set flush into the green body, and each holds a flower formed inside the glass in yellow-green, red or blue. Because the flower sits within the glass rather than on its surface, the color cannot chip, scratch or fade. The marbles are also flush with the body, so they are better protected than the raised daisies and ladybug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the Garden Critters Small different from the Bug's Life Small?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are the same size and weight — Empire Glassworks list both at 4.5\" × 1.8\" and 94 grams — and both come from Empire's habitat-themed dry-pipe line. The difference is the scene. The Empire Glassworks Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe is a garden with flower implosion marbles, white daisies and a ladybug; the Bug's Life Small is a mossy log with raised mushrooms and critters. Empire price them at $50.00 and $70.00, and Angies Boutique matches both a penny under.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this the large Garden Critters Pipe or the small one?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the small one. The Empire Glassworks Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe is 4.5 inches long and 1.8 inches wide, weighs about 94 grams, and is Empire's part number 2273. Angies Boutique also lists a larger Garden Critters Pipe as a separate product.

Empire Glassworks list a left side carb hole as a feature, and it is visible in the photographs. In a right-hand grip your thumb covers it naturally, which is the standard layout for a spoon pipe. Left-handed smokers use a finger or turn the pipe around. Holding the Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe this way also keeps your fingers clear of the ladybug beside the bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many marbles are on the Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEmpire Glassworks do not publish a marble count for the small size, and every Garden Critters Small Spoon Pipe is blown individually at the torch, so Angies Boutique does not quote one.

There is no way to add water and nowhere to fit a banger or nail. It is designed for a medium grind packed into the fixed bowl and lit with a standard lighter.
