The Pipe room at Wishbone Gifts Inc

The pipe room at Wishbone Gifts Inc is the reason many shop at Wishbone

Wishbone is unique in many ways here in Indiana. As most sellers of glass pipes sell cheap imported glass. That can easily burn someone, because the cheap China imports are thin glass and heats up very very quickly. Rod on the other hand sells mainly local glass blower pipes and US made pipes. Rod is very knowledgeable as is his staff about who each artist for each piece is. He has one case of pipes that are really just works of art that he has on display but they are not for sell unless you offer him a good amount. He isn't gonna come off those pieces for retail.

The Art pieces

I love museums, and when I go into Wishbone there is one display as I mentioned before with Museum quality art pieces. They are absolutely amazing pieces. There are little cards that Rod has written information on about the artists that is displayed in front of the piece or pieces if he has more than one from that artist. I hope you enjoy looking at the photos I took of these art pieces. If you are ever in Muncie, Indiana take time to stop by and check out these pieces for yourself. Cause they look much better in person than I could ever get capturing it with my camera.

I think most will agree the pieces above are works of art

You can see them in person for yourself. If you missed my hidden places pieces on Wishbone Gifts Inc you can find it here. You can find the hours and location at the link. Very few places in Indiana sells US artists pipes. And no one else in the state has such a large selection of local Pipes made from Hoosiers and Americans over all. So if you are in the Muncie, Indiana area check out Wishbone Gifts Inc. Wishbone is a unique store one that I love going and buying unique gifts from.
