It's too bad that only one month of the year can be Claypril. This threat is generating a lot of heat.

You could smoke you a clay any old time. Claypril is in the mind.

Very limited supply made by Bulone himself in the 70s-80s. He has gone to his reward and there will be no more.

The bowl is striped in the colors of The Netherlands flag.

Since it's a clay, no one has to worry about running a pipe cleaner through that stem. A cool, dry smoke is guaranteed every time when you've got a clay stem attached to a clay bowl.

Dutch people know how to have fun.



They also know how to split a check.

Yes we do. As an example, a popular breakfast food: Boterham met hagelslag

That would be brown bread, butter, and sprinkles. They vary in flavor from chocolate, anise, to fruit flavors.
