Why a bamboo bong
Bamboo brings advantages glass cannot:
Eco-friendly
Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing renewable materials on earth — a sustainable choice over glass or acrylic.
Durable
Bamboo flexes instead of shattering, so a bamboo bong survives drops that would destroy glass.
Natural finish
Each piece is hand-crafted, so the grain and finish make every Ragabong unique.
Glass downstem
A glass bowl and downstem keep the airflow clean while the bamboo body does the rest.
