From what i've been seeing these days, i'd say the reverse calabash is the latest novelty. they seem to be all over the place, everyone and their moms makes one.

On another note, I really wish they would stop using the term "Calabash" if it isn't made from a gourd.
A Calabash is a gourd, not a hunk of wood.

Here is a genuine novelty...the all marble pipe. Acquired as part of an estate pipe lot I purchased, or I would never own 1. It will most likely crack if actual use ever took place.View attachment 78354
Marble has a pretty good thermal shock point, which might make it a pretty good smoker. If it were mine, I would at least try it.

It is a novelty as long as you store it in your shelf far away from your pipes... stare at it from a distance on a plexiglass from time to time maybe?
