Sonthert Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 The shank is acrylic and metal, metal cased, the jar is czech glass, very nice, but the color is not desireable. Dark Green would be 1st, then cobalt blue, then medium blue, then coral red, light blue, aquamarine, then amber from most desirable to least desirable. Group Elegance is a lower brand, Chinese made. I'm familiar with that hookah, shall we say, worth about $55 used, $100 new (Low Retail)-$150 new (high retail). Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Thanks Eric. I'd say Sonthert's info would be the most reliable out of all the other guesses and self serving posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I do. *starts the Sonthert fanboi club*On a serious note, I really do wish I knew that much about hookahs, because I'm really into history so I'd love to be able to ID em and date them etc, where do you find this stuff out Eric? Just experience in the industry? Maybe it's this website =) I can already spot the cheap hookahs that are way overpriced now, and I can tell a good from a bad and know what to look for to find leaks etc.-Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristyn Posted May 27, 2009 Author Share Posted May 27, 2009 Extra photos - fyi for all of those who asked for them.Our camera is not the greatest, but here's what I have. Thanks for all of the helpful posts.By the way .... it appears that the vase is crystal but the stem is plastic or something along those lines. It's missing the ash catcher.

Giant Ninja Robot Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 If the stem is "plastic" it's acrylic, just so you have the right info to give to potential buyers. Cool lookin pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypherkk Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I was looking at that website for hubble bubble The one that was linked in the first page. I noticed one of the stems, looked just like the supposed MYA that I bought from Hookah Company. The bottom stem coroded or calcified and the thread wore out. I threw it away, then I looked at the glass and the brown pyramid was exactly like the glass base I got from them as well. Looks like I didn't get a MYA from them after all. THats really depressing.I paid about 129 dollars for it new. And it never really smoked as well as the hookah I got from Spencers for between 69 and 89 I can't remember its been so long. Really makes we wonder about the KM I got from them, that I feel, has never really smoked well either.But I think Im sold on never buying a hookah that costs more than a 100 bucks, just doesn't seem worth it.

Sonthert Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 That jar may be "Bohemian" but its not crystal...or it seems not to be from the pictures. I stand by my estimate. I just looked at it again...its right, confirmed by cypherkk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
