Glass in Melbourne?

I just got back from Melbourne, and while I was there I was on a bit of a mission to find some decent glass. I failed :D Does anyone know where you can get *real* glass in Melbourne? I'm trying to find 100% glass pieces - bubblers, spoons, sherlocks etc. but the only store that had some was Bong-o-Mania (by far the best store I visited, saw a few bongs in the adult store windows, but Off Ya Tree on Swanston was a huge disappointment!) but they were cheap Indonesian shite. I couldn't believe how bad (and cheap) they were.

 

Aside from Freewheelin in Adelaide, is there nowhere else to buy good quality art-glass in Australia? I'm starting to think that a day-trip to Adelaide, or ordering something in from Canada or California is the only way I'm going to get a decent piece. Can anyone help? :D

I don't reccomend the large glass cone piece though ( the bowl shaped one ) we sent them back because they are clearly not quality controlled some holes are so small in the glass that a conventional stoker won't go in without breakign the glass , half seemed ok btu half where really bad and varied in sizes

Art-glass? The stuff I'm talking about is what's found on glasspipes.org - one-piece borosilicate artwork pieces.

 

Agung had a single one-piece in their catalogue that we went through in Bong-o-Mania, but everything else uses rubber washers and metal downstems and cones. I'm after 100% glass, no rubber or removable cone pieces, not even GonG ground joints or anything - just single-piece art pieces like a decent bubbler.

if that aint it, well fuck knows.

Just had a better look, its not what you want, although it is a good selection

 

Sorry mate, that ain't it :) Visit glasspipes.org to see what I'm trying to find. There are a couple of items like this in the Agung catalogue but they're cheap shite and they look ugly as fuck. They carry a few spoons, but they were all opaque monstrosities of ugliness.

The Place near the corner of Church and Swan St (Diagonally opposite the Swan hotel) in Richmond has stuff like that.

 

Can't remember it's name, something like "SmokeDreams Intensities" or something like that.

 

I buy my rolling papers and my Bongs from there - they have the best selection I've found in Melbourne, although I haven't looked much.
