TEMPEST
Designer Magnetic Pipe
COLOR: Glimmer
QUICK SELECT
Meet Tempest, the designer magnetic pipe from Artifact, engineered to elevate your ritual. It delivers ultra smooth hits and feels like art in your hand, with two symmetrical halves held together by powerful magnets that pull apart in a second for easy cleaning.
Inside, a cooling Labyrinth stretches the smoke, strips out heat, and collects resin so every bowl lands smooth and cool. It looks like a sculpture, hits like a bong, and opens up for easy access. Drop in the optional titanium filter for effortless sessions with hash and other extracts. Easily clean it back to nearly brand new whenever you want.
A revolution in design and performance. Crafted to elevate every detail.
FEATURES:
- FUTURISTIC / BRUTALIST DESIGN
A seamless, symmetrical shape that’s as stunning to display as it is to use.
- PATENTED LABYRINTH TECHNOLOGY
Cools and filters each draw through an intricate maze beneath the bowl. Resin and tar that builds in the pathway helps to filter each hit even more.
- MAGNETIC PRECISION
Two perfectly engineered halves connect magnetically for effortless assembly and cleaning.
- TITANIUM FILTERED
Includes two titanium filters, designed to handle legal herb, tobacco, or botanical extract with ease while keeping ashes out.
- EFFORTLESS MAINTENANCE¹
Comes with a cleaning brush for the labyrinth and a dual-purpose bowl pick (perfect for clearing the bowl or shredding on guitar)—scrub with isopropyl alcohol and it's brand new again.
Tempest is more than a pipe - it’s a masterpiece of form and function. Learn more about why Tempest is the most advanced cooling pipe available.

DESIGN & MATERIAL
Tempest was designed as a piece of table sculpture first and a pipe second. The geometry is clean and simple, with every line serving a purpose. No exposed hinges, no awkward seams, just a seamless form that happens to be a very capable smoking tool.

Each Tempest is precision machined from solid highest-grade aluminum, then finished to a smooth touch and anodized with a durable color treatment. The magnets are tuned so the halves snap together with a satisfying click and stay put in a bag, pocket, or drawer until you twist them open.

FAQ
What is the idea behind the shape?
When we set out to create a better pipe, we reinvented almost the whole thing. It had to be easy to clean, so it needed to come apart. It had to look good on a table, so we designed a symmetrical shape that feels intentional from every angle. The bowl is square, the Labyrinth is square, and even the mouthpiece is square, so every line lines up. The mouthpiece is designed so you rest your lips on it instead of wrapping your whole mouth around it, which also makes sharing feel more sanitary.
How does it work?
The square bowl feeds into a hidden internal Labyrinth. As you pull, the smoke travels through this extended pathway, bouncing around the hard angles inside. That extra distance and contact with the metal pulls out heat and softens the draw. Over time, a thin layer of resin builds up along the pathway, which helps trap fine particles and stray ash that would otherwise end up in your mouth, so the hit reaches your lips smoother, cooler, and cleaner than a basic pipe.
Do your fingers get hot?
No. The Labyrinth pulls heat away from the airflow, but that heat does not reach the outside. Tempest stays cool in the hand while you use it.
Do I have to use the filter?
No. The filter is optional. It is designed for finer material and to keep stray particles from reaching your mouth. If you prefer to pack a larger bowl without it, you can. Over time, the Labyrinth pathway seasons and starts to act like a natural filter as well. If the draw ever feels restricted, that usually means the filter needs a quick clean.
How much fits in the bowl?
It depends on what you are packing, but the bowl holds roughly one third of a gram of freshly ground herb.
How often do I have to clean it?
That depends on how often you use it and what you are smoking. Most people can get through dozens of bowls before buildup starts to affect the draw. When it feels a little restricted, pull the halves apart, give the bowl and Labyrinth a quick clean, and you are back to full performance.
How long will it last?
Tempest is machined from solid metal with no fragile hinges or moving parts. With normal care and occasional cleaning it is built to last many years, long enough to be something you pass down.
