MILKYWAY GLASS

Collectible art has always been something I am drawn to, and I tend to favour brands that incorporate art into their design. MilkyWay glass is one such brand with over 10 years of experience in (bong) glass making techniques including their signature sandblasting. Highly detailed glassware is their specialty (experts in graphical design) and according to their site their goal is to elicit “feelings” from the user, crafting sensory experiences for like minded folks.

AREA 51 BONG

Part of the Space Odyssey Series, a rather large collection that focusses on aliens and outer space. This bong is the sequel to their Roswell 1947 beaker, a bong that featured artwork depicting an alien crash landing. This updated design is smaller in stature with intricate sandblasting that shows a captured alien being experiment on. The entire piece is made from thick and durable borosilicate glass; some parts clear and other parts frosted from the sandblasting.  

As with most of their pieces there is a very wide and thick pedestal at the base. Both the top and the underside of this base are sandblasted, a small but interesting detail. The water chamber is on the smaller side with a fixed down stem within. This down stem curves and culminates into a disc percolator designed to provide smoother hits. The provided clear Orbit Bowl (not shown in photo)has the the signature sandblasting applied as a band around the body. This band will act as a grip for safer handling. 14mm in size, male in gender with a frosted port for an airtight fit. Lastly the glass narrows as you reach the mouthpiece at the very top.

Measuring: Stands at just under 24cms tall.
