Anslinger Glass

 

To all the turn-and-burn bottom feeders who’ve opted for the quantity over quality route: This blurb isn’t for you. It’s not that we want to leave you out or make you feel unwelcome. We just know that getting your customers to understand the value of handmade functional art produced by a master of his or her craft just isn’t your bag. You sell pipes—and that’s fine. But for now, we’re going to discuss some sacred chalices.  

 

Anslinger Glass is a one-man glassblowing operation out of Sultan, Washington that provides a sort of bridge between the run-of-the-mill prodo spoons and the five-figure heddies that serve more as credibility trophies than commodities. Every piece from Anslinger is a one-of-a-kind work of awe-inspiring functional art that demonstrates a care and precision that can only be achieved by a multi-decade, veteran craftsman. For the quick sale, look to China. But for an accessible piece of sacred art that will be treasured for a lifetime, consider Anslinger

But the cannabis industry rolls a different kind of paper, so instead of a slap on the wrist, it gets a surcharge.
Smokeshop and counterculture enthusiasts enjoy discovery as part of the experience. Customers enjoy browsing. When they walk into a shop, they don't simply grab a product and leave. They look for something new. This is the main reason flyers and posters still work. Smokeshops and dispensaries are highly visual environments. You want to see bold artwork, psychedelic graphics, and street-style posters that naturally capture attention.
The use of cannabis in professional sports has always been a controversial subject. While some are firm believers that all substances should be banned from professional sports altogether, most people aren’t thinking about cannabis when they’re discussing performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). In fact, there have been countless cannabis users in the world of professional sports throughout the years; some of whom are more open about their love for the plant than others.
North Carolina might save us all. A new state bill may be the industry’s best option to save itself from demise when new federal cannabinoid bans take effect in November. And it could use your support.
Hemp is often considered for the things that it is not. It is not intoxicating, it is not illegal, and it is not marijuana. However, now we are seeing a focus back to what it can be. The plant is moving into the level of wine and chocolate and becoming a movement and a culture.
It’s been several months since President Donald Trump signed an executive order to reschedule cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III within the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). On paper, the recent executive order, entitled “Increasing Medical Marijuana and Cannabidiol Research,” is a huge step in the right direction for cannabis smokers across the country.
For years, we’ve been told that this industry is the Wild West: a place where the only law amounts to whatever the guy with the gun says.
