I might seem like much reading, so come back at your convenience. Your invited!
you might later be able to purchase a value-added rock that is not a pipe.

The company story.
Each pipe comes from individually owned and operated sites where stone craftsmen take precautions to protect their senses. Touch guides what remains of boulders across a diamond-tipped-blade-wheel which blasts forth a high-pitched screech bang sound which requires ear protection. Sight is protected since pieces of stone tend to fly off in different directions. There is a taste of rock talc from the cloud that fills the air. You can smell the friction of the tools working the stone that is mostly kept at bay and endured by wearing protective gear during the cutting, drilling and polishing process. The sixth sense helps,… it brings the process of making the pipe safely together.
This information is provided to help you appreciate your senses,… know that your senses remain safe; while these craftsmen rely on a combination of safety awareness, safe practice and the higher power to provide this art and nice conversation piece. Search for custom hand-crafted briar pipes to know a similar process.
When it comes to claiming "socially responsible business", the Free Trade Coffee concept of providing a living wage was used. They are made in Mexico where people have falsely been made to believe living is cheap. With your help, we will also share a percentage of profits to help enhance life where these stone craftsmen and their friends and families live. It is a community where music and sports play an important role. These monies will go towards enjoying these activities further. I’m thinking a pool and entertainment pavilion, since my foreman plays the accordion and likes to entertain.

Here, I am trying to convince lawmakers to allow the sale of this Eco-Art:
Since this piece has a bowl and tube within a rock, it may be considered contraband. If you will smoke from it, consider the following:
This is a “traditional pipe” by the definition of above tobacco pipe definition.
Please do not consider this conversation piece paraphernalia.
Please do not use drugs with this piece. Smoking tobacco is better enjoyed from a water pipe such as a hookah. Or,... use paper if you enjoy smoking from that. This pipe is sold as a novelty.
* The first intention was to have something for people who grew up listening to
the words "stone" and "stoned" in their music and who now have a
tangible object with which to relate their experience in conversation
with others. "Rock & Roll." Warning: this rock will roll if not properly set on it's base.
* I have asked that it not be used with drugs for your protection and safety.
When defining if items to be provided to the public are for drug use,
what needs to be addressed is the objective features
of the pipe and what people will do with this pipe. When I
submitted the patent for the "smoking pipe, rock",
I stated this pipe was designed with a small bowl
to reduced the amount of tobacco intake while
meeting the urges of the smoker. A smaller bowl
provides for those times a pipe smoker wants
a smaller amount of tobacco to smoke for pleasure.
This I ask for officials to compare to a
smaller bowl, a “one-hitter’ or whatever the technical
term may be, of say, a hash-pipe. You can truly enjoy
a good bowl of smoking pipe tobacco with this pipe.
The original use and intention is a conversation piece,
to be displayed. It is a novelty and sold as such.

Dear Law Enforcement Authority,
If your local or state law still prohibit this novelty conversation piece;
you are asked to forward your order to prohibit your residents from purchasing this item
on official letterhead to the address below.
It will be posted on this website and the offer void within your jurisdiction.
Respectfully Yours,
