Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Bought the Lantern hookah for 30 bucks today. Never been smoked, just sat in a flower shop for a couple years as a decoration. Was 120 new according to the woman I bought it from. I could use some help from you more cultured than I: there is what I guess is Arabic writing on the vase and the tray I took pics of that may identify it better.Here she isbig ol hose portI heart this vase and think it makes the pipe look a kajillion times better than the caravan one.Glass is a tiny bit more orange than the pics showtray has a nice little floral designPlease help me figure out what this says?I like how deep the downstem goesIs this the brand or just a random name, does the arabic say anything different?The only thing that could potentially bring the smoke down is the tiny hose port hole, it's hard to tell from the pic but it's hella smallThanks for checking her out and if you know what the engraving and sticker says please lemme know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 also, I'm glad it came with a good egyptian grommet because frankly mod grommets really don't fit very well with phunnels. And the sucker purges really well. In fact I'll take a purge pic right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Very nice. Love the Ba Bakir Hose too!Can you actually make the lantern part light up with some candles or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Thanks Stuie! Even though the littlew posts around the lantern unscrew it doesn't come apart, it's afixed to the rest of the stem. And yeah the ol modded Ba Bakir has done me well, I love it, it has a pull that's a little tighter than a KM hose but I like a little resistance.Purges as well as my KMs, no jokefor fun, here's the mod I made from a coffee can to raise my windcover for phunnels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antouwan Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 the stamp on the tray says 'awlatt ra7haan' which would translate to ra7haan state or state of ra7haan...whatever the hell ra7haan is...and the sticker that says esam eldin, above it in arabic it says, 'made in egypt' if you have a km hose, check the arabic side and you'll see the exact same words for 'made in egypt' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freezerburn456 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 My lounge just got in a HUGE shipment of stems with the same markings as yours. Ours have the same release valve, tray and lantern. The only real difference that I can see is the hose port. Is yours light as hell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 It's not supr light but it's hollow for sure...you can see the downstem through the lantern and it just follows the rest of the way through. Not as heavy as my solid zahirah stem , but heavier than my KM Amoura. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
