The wood of the VaporGenie pipe is finely sanded smooth and is sealed with natural a food grade varnish that reveals beautiful wood grain patterns. There are no glues, adhesives other toxic chemicals used in the VaporGenie pipe. Almost all components of the VaporGenie pipe are proudly made in the USA (about 75% on a dollar cost basis).

The ceramic filter in the VaporGenie pipe is made of high-purity silicon carbide, one of the most inert and heat-resistant ceramics known. Silicon carbide is made of only silicon and carbon, in a diamond crystal structure. Silicon carbide does not contain metals and so will not contaminate your vapor or create metallic flavors. The ceramic filter does not burn, fracture, or deteriorate. It will never need replacement.

All the metal parts in the VaporGenie pipe are either stainless steel or chrome plated for inertness. The VaporGenie pipe comes with a stainless steel screen and stainless steel bowl.

The length (from mouthpiece to the center of the bowl) of the Maple VG is 4.5 inches, and the length of the Handcarved pipes is 5.7 inches.
