The talented Seth Meacham aka Elks That Run is a fan favorite amongst glass enthusiasts and high profile collectors. His work is highly sought after and spends little time in retail stores before being snatched up by glass connoisseurs. His definitive and unique style, as his moniker suggests is inspired by the flora and fauna of the United States as well as Native American culture and art. This time around he has incorporated different...

Enthusiasts love viewing the manufacturing process in HD Video and appreciate the professional photography of the finished CHeBA Hut Bubbler.

Ever since I let IgniteMe Editor and Writer Dan Amber test out the last Silika Oiler needless to say I’ve felt a gap in my life. The original oiler was probably the quintessential daily driver piece; easy to clean, just the right size, and able to take on either concentrates or flowers. And with such a simple and sleek design traveling with it is a breeze! When the guys at Silika told us they were working on a re-vamped version of...

Since it’s inception, The Dab Lab.com has been making quite a a lot of waves in the cyber realm. By giving consumers another platform to both buy glass, fulfill custom orders, and what we think is most important exposing consumers to a whole new group of interesting glassblowers both world acclaimed and local legends. With an ever changing line up you just don’t know who’s next it seems, and thats the way we like it. This...

Over the last weekend the IgniteMe crew ventured down south to Phoenix, Arizona. During our visit we got a chance to break away from the wild collegiate night life scene of Tempe to take refuge at an oasis/studio downtown. There we met up with the guys from Concentrate Lab Glass as well as their new collaborating artist Joshua Hamra aka HAM FAM. There we got the inside scoop as to what they were up to as well as check out some sneak...

An Opinicus is a griffin-like creature of heraldry (aka “The Griffin’s cooler cousin”); sometimes it was depicted with ears and a lynx-like body and tail, and other times with no ears, a lionlike body, and a camel’s tail. And for those who are still confused Heraldry is the system by which coats of arms and other armorial bearings are devised, described, and regulated. Maybe your family has one, but if not...

Specializing in a wide variety of concentrate related products Phoenix, Arizona based Concentrate Labs has established themselves as one of the premiere american glassmakers of the west. Taking the extra incentive to do things such as crafting their own pemium grade 2 titanium plates and nails Concentrate Labs is quickly being recognized as a new mover and shaker in the industry having only started in early 2011. The newest addition to...

It seems as though Silika has answered our prayers, and then some! On our last post we challenged Silika to bring some heady work to their fabulous Concentrate Reclaimer and not only have they done that but they’ve also prepared for those odd moments where you don’t have your water pipe on you… You can see that the gobe and the chamber have been worked, but they keep the concentrate catch on the bottom clear so you can...

New from Aqualab comes a great collab from Sovereignty & Hitman! This Stemline to Turbine takes the innovations each brand has made and put them into one piece. Long have I been told the Stemline is the optimum percolation system, and while at IGS  the guys from hitman showed me that their Turbine percolation system was just as good. The Turbine actually creates a tiny cyclone of smoke (like a helix would); I was highly impressed...
