Meet Alexander Pelliccia of Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary

Today we’d like to introduce you to Alexander Pelliccia.

Hi Alexander, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
In a tale of creativity, entrepreneurship, and friendship, Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary has become the epitome of cannabis innovation in Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina. This unique venture, founded by childhood friends Rob and Alex, seamlessly combines high-end glass artistry with the flourishing cannabis world.

The story begins with Rob, a masterful glassblower whose intricate lathe-made creations later allowed Sherlocks to provide only American-made glass pipes. All the local stores carried only imported glass. The allure of his glass work quickly spread throughout the local cannabis community, catching the attention of his childhood friend, Alex—his vision and dream perfectly aligned with Rob’s craft.

“The journey started with a passion for high-end glass pipes, but the dream was always cannabis,” reflects Alex, emphasizing the convergence of their passions.

Together, Rob and Alex transformed their shared dream into Sherlocks Glass Art Gallery, a haven for art enthusiasts and cannabis connoisseurs. With locations in Raleigh and Durham, NC, Sherlocks Glass Art Gallery became a community cornerstone, offering a curated collection of top-tier glass pieces and, more recently, an expanded selection of premium cannabis products.

In 2023, as hemp laws evolved, so did Sherlocks’ offerings and branding. The discovery of high THCa flower opened new doors for the dynamic duo in North Carolina, prompting the expansion into the cannabis dispensary realm. Now Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary proudly presents a carefully curated selection of AAA Living Soil Exotic THCa Flower strains, adhering to the latest legal guidelines while meeting the diverse preferences of its customers.

“Cold Cured Hash Rosin is also mostly THCa. The COAs all show less than .3% delta 9 THC, making it federally compliant per the federal farm bill,” says Alex.

Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary’s website, Sherlocksglass.com, serves as a digital gateway to high-end glass artistry and premium cannabis products. Sherlocks only offers THCa, Delta 9 and CBD products, making the choice simple and extra high quality. You won’t find any BS alt-cannabinoids, like Delta 8 THC, at Sherlocks. Whether you are seeking a unique glass piece for your collection or exploring the therapeutic benefits of THCa flower and Hash Rosin, Sherlocks’ online platform provides a seamless and informative experience. Try their bestselling 100% Hash Rosin Vape.

The Raleigh and Durham locations of Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary have become not just places to shop but community hubs. Educational workshops, events, and promotions are regularly featured, ensuring that Sherlocks actively contributes to and engages with the local cannabis culture.

As Rob and Alex celebrate their journey from childhood friends to successful entrepreneurs, Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary stands tall, symbolizing their shared vision, adaptability, and commitment to excellence. The fusion of artistic flair and entrepreneurial spirit has not only elevated Sherlocks to new heights. Still, it has also solidified its place as North Carolina’s premier cannabis dispensary and glass shop in both Raleigh and Durham, NC.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Since our opening in 2015, we have had an outpouring of support from our local community. I would say that there have been challenges but doing business with my best friends have made it feel like the best experience ever no matter what we are going through. Sherlocks is successful due to our customers and only because of our customers. We treasure our local community more than anything. If I had to say something about a specific challenge, I would say that COVID-19 was extremely hard for all small businesses. We had to close our stores for multiple months while continuing to pay our employees. Since then we have been continuing our climb up the mountain and the peak is nowhere in sight. I can’t wait to see what’s at the top!

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Sherlocks Glass Art Gallery started in 2015 as a high-end art gallery with a focus on functional Glass art relating to Cannabis. As the years progressed, the dream was always to transfer into a cannabis dispensary. This dream was realized in 2023 when Sherlocks Glass & Dispensary was born. We only carry the highest quality THCa, Delta 9 and CBD products. We source from the highest quality manufacturers and cultivators. We make the choice, simple without offering all of the unpredictable and low quality alternative can happen options that other businesses like us may offer. This year we are celebrating 10 years in business and we are so thankful for everyone who has supported us along the way, especially our beloved employees and customers.

Who else deserves credit in your story?
We give all the credit to our parents and loved ones who supported us along the way. Our wives who have always been there for us, and our employees who have made our stores the amazing places they are. We also could not be here without the love and support of our community. Our customers make us what we are! We love you all!
