Glass spoon vs silicone spoon: the actual comparison
Spoon pipes are the most universal smoking tool. Everyone has owned one. Most people have broken one. The decision between glass and silicone comes down to what you actually use a spoon pipe for — and for most people, that's everyday use, travel, and passing around. Silicone wins those contexts by a significant margin.
Where glass spoons win
Glass spoons are transparent (you can see the smoke build), they can be made into genuine art pieces, and heady glass spoons are collectibles. If you're a collector, or you want a display piece, glass is the answer. Also: glass spoons are widely available at every price point.
Where silicone spoons win
Drop it. Step on it. Throw it in a bag with your keys. A silicone spoon survives all of this without consequence. The Eyce Spoon also includes a built-in lid that keeps your bowl covered between sessions and doubles as a poker. The glass bowl insert means flavor is identical to a glass spoon. Clean it in the dishwasher. The value math is also simple: one Eyce Spoon that lasts years costs less than replacing glass spoons every few months.

FAQ
Q: Does the Eyce Spoon come with a glass bowl?
A: Yes. The glass bowl insert delivers clean flavor and is replaceable if broken.
Q: What is the carb on a spoon pipe?
A: A small hole on the side of the bowl. Cover it when inhaling to build smoke; release it to clear the chamber. Standard on all spoon pipes.
Q: Can I use a silicone spoon pipe outdoors?
A: Absolutely — it's one of the best outdoor pipes available. Wind doesn't affect it differently than glass, and it won't shatter on rocks or concrete.
