Al Nawras Wooden Hookah

[Chreees]

As you may have noticed from my signature, I have sold my Khalil Mamoon OG Trimetal to Tyler (Aeon). I will miss it dearly, but I could only justify this purchase by selling one from my collection (plus I needed money to get this new one lol). I know Ty will give her a good home.

With that said, I'd like to introduce you to "Shawty," thanks to Mark at Kasbah.us:

Whoever said these trays were "generic" and "crap" didn't know what they were talking about. This thing is heavy, thick, and solid:

Mark had a VERY limited number of these, and he was kind enough to let me purchase a pair. Kickass "Dragon" tongs:

And this is the hose it came with. Pharaoh's "Mya" hose, lol:

The shank is gorgeous. I am planning on selling the green vase and the hose and she will be going on my red genie that my Al Nawras crosshatch model used to sit on (moved it to the trumpet vase Hassouni brought me back from Lebanon). I will post pictures soon, probably on my collection thread, shortly enough. Gonna be a busy week and I'm not even going to get a chance to smoke this thing until probably Thursday of next week. Maybe. Sucks, but gotta get this wedding stuff together! Also doing a video gig that I'm getting paid for.

Anyway, what do you guys think? I think I'm in love...

[headhunter]

i think im drooling let me check.....yep. lol but really great pick up man deff worth the trade of from a KM OG Tri, im jelly lol

[dreamyxcupcakes]

That thing is drop dead gorgeous!!! Do want!

[vendetta_revived]

Awesome. Loved it when I saw it the first time. I am loving the wooden and brass nawras Mark has atm, and the brass inlay on yours is sexy as fuck! How big is the hose port? As big as your other syrians?

[r1v3th3ad]

Omg that is sexy but I can't believe you got rid of the og...I want those tongs

[mattarios2]

It isn't my style but doesn't mean it isn't quality and a great pipe.

Enjoy it man!

[ChicagoRSX]

Nice pick up man, not feeling the flowers on it, but I'm sure it's a quality pipe. Congrats man!

[Chreees]

Thanks guys!

Vimal- It's as big as my other Nawras' hose port, just shorter, and should take any hose except for the KM Beast.

Pat- OG Trimetal is a readily available hookah. Granted mine was an older one, so that made it more special, I definitely feel this was a sound trade-in, considering I was neglecting OG a lot. I have determined I prefer the way Syrians smoke.

Didn't really dig these at first but great pics! wish I had picked one up when COTH offered.

[KasbahBazaar]

Glad you're happy with the purchase, man! Syrians for everyone!!

Not quite my taste, but it's pretty sweet looking!
