Default Shipping Opium Pipes to the US

Right now I'm in Laos, a country that was essentially the opium capital of the world for decades. In many of the tourist shops they sell really nice elaborately crafted opium pipes complete with display stand. I'd like to get one for myself and several as gifts for friends. Obviously possession of a bunch of opium pipes could cause some problems when crossing borders, so shipping them seems like the best solution. The problem is that these are drug paraphernalia by anyone's definition. It's not even possible to smoke tobacco out of them. Normally I wouldn't be worried, but this administration has gone out of their way to prosecute people making and selling bongs, etc. Am I just being paranoid? What should I put on the customs form to limit my chances of the package being opened or seized? Here's a picture of an opium pipe if anyone's curious:
