Kiseru pipes are traditional Japanese smoking pipes typically used for smoking tobacco, but can also be used for smoking other substances such as cannabis. These pipes are comprised of three components: the mouthpiece (called "kuchi"), the bowl (called "tabako-ire"), and the stem (called "iene").
The mouthpiece is usually made of bamboo or metal, and is the part that the smoker puts in their mouth. The bowl is where the tobacco or other substance is placed, and is usually made of ceramic, brass, or silver. The stem is the long, slender piece that connects the mouthpiece to the bowl, and is traditionally made of bamboo, though metal or wood versions are also available.
Kiseru pipes have been used in Japan since the 17th century, and were popularized during the Edo period (1603-1868). They were once a status symbol and displayed the social standing of the smoker. Nowadays, they are not as commonly used as they once were, but they still hold cultural significance and are often used in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies or for special occasions.
