ChicagoRSX Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Found this on CL, trying to decide what kind of hookah it is. Looks pretty unique, supposed to go look at it Saturday. Any ideas?

Rani Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Don't know but I'd grab that puppy if I were you. Really, really nice. 'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Based on the stem, hoe port and purge, it's syrian. Name Brand no idea, if it's a heavy shank, I would get it. Looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Syrian screw-apart. Pretty nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Yeah, screw together Syrian hookah. No idea about a brand or model, but it's one of the most handsome pipes I've seen in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mushrat Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 ya was also going to say syrian. If you got the money..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlec Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) Decent looking Syrian, I'd say it's got a few years on it too. Make sure it's airtight when screwed together. Edited April 27, 2012 by littlec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santino Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Definitely a good pick up. There's always room for another syrian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Vertical hose port means it probably has an open heart which is indicative of a cheaper pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRSX Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 Well I decided to pick it up, got it for $75 so I don't think it was bad. Needs new gromets, so I'll have to go order that, and has some oxidation on it and also has some corrosion(not rust) from water. I think it will smoke good. Just need to figure out how best to go about cleaning this sucker out. Pics to follow later as I'm not at home at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeetsak Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 i think it is an old old nawras. i have seen an obvious nawras hookah that had the same purge. it was supposed to be 15 years old. (thats what the dude who owned it said) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] common chambers use straight, short, simple ports that go in at and angle..usually. think of a KM hose port. it bends and goes straight down through the heart to come straight out the bottom of the heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
