It is essentially a smoking accessory, made to enhance the smoking experience by providing a more comfortable grip and a more elegant or discrete way of smoking.
These cherute-style joint holders are often crafted from materials like wood, glass, or metal, and they typically feature a tapered design that accommodates the size and shape of a cannabis joint.
