Editor’s Note

Thanks for picking up The Glass Issue of the Leaf!

Glass holds a special place within Cannabis culture, as it both defines our movement through artistic expression, and provides the tools necessary to consume our plant. Without glass pipes, bongs and dab rigs, we’d be stuck smoking joints and out of apples in a return to prelegalization shenanigans.

Today, glass pieces regularly sell for five to six figures – and a single piece has the power to define a stoner’s personality the way a cool car or shoes can. This representation of Cannabis culture is unique to consuming our favorite plant, as I’ve yet to see custom beer steins being brought to bars by drinkers, or heady pipes bejeweled for smoking illegal street drugs. With many of the highs outside of Cannabis being a function of necessity, and oftentimes addiction, it explains the lack of investment into accoutrement.
