Who doesn’t know Sherlock Homes? Even though it is fictional detective character, Holmes’s popularity and fame are such that many have believed him to be not a fiction but a real individual. Sherlock pipes are named after the iconic pipes smoked by this literary figure. These pipes have a nice and unique aesthetic that separates them from other glass pipes. It is hailed as a classic among smoking enthusiasts. Sherlock pipes are one of the sturdiest and coolest among pipes which are available in different varieties; many brands produce their own signature Sherlock. The good thing about having different options is that you can grab yourself a perfectly suitable one that meets your needs.

The classic Sherlock pipes have a large bowl with a stylishly arching stem. The bottom of the bowl is often flattened to allow the pipe to stand easily when not being used. An extra-long and curved Sherlock pipe is known as a Gandalf Pipe. It is similar to Sherlock pipe, except that the stem is highly elongated. Both of these pipes may or may not have a carburetor. Gandalf pipes are often huge and hence not easily portable as a standard Sherlock. A Gandalf pipe’s mouthpiece is much farther away from the dry herbs bowl than most of the other Sherlock pipes. This runs out the risk of flame being too close to your face while lighting the herbs.

But what if you want to enjoy a nice filtered smoke? There are amazing Sherlock bubblers out there for you!

Bubblers combine the convenience of a handheld glass pipe with the function of glass bongs. With different swirling colors in glass, long and slender stem that leads to a decorated bowl, Sherlock bubbler is truly a work of art. The elegant curves of the bubbler make it very comfortable to hold and simple to pass to next one at the parties. Its deep chamber holds just the right amount of water to properly cool the smoke before it moves up to the mouthpiece. The water in the lower end of the Sherlock will cool and filter any impurities out of the smoke. Similar to Sherlock pipes, the Sherlock bubbler bottom is flat so you can place it on a table safely without it tipping over. These bubblers with vintage looks are excellent table pieces as well.
