rishi Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 This is the first hookah I have ever bought. It came from a shop in the UAE:[img]http://img244.imageshack.us/img244/9065/p0823061634kq3.th.jpg[/img]This mini (13 inches or so) is different to most of the stuff I am seeing on the Internet as it has a 'whitish' [b]marble mid-section [/b] in the stem.The hookah is quite heavy, really well built, and smokes far better than a full size hookah I bought as a gift for someone.It says AGER on the case I got with it, but this may not be the brand as I bought it from a local shop which sold all-sorts of things.Any ideas whether or which particular brand it is? -sorry for the poor quality pic! (I'll try to post better pics/more pics later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I actually see them all the time in the shop near me, but i have yet to try one; i was sorta curious.Its smaller than even the QT or Taqseem Junior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAP Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I have one similar but without the marble.I have to warn you that it really will tip over a lot as the base is rounded and not completely flat. The marble on it will also make it a lot more top-heavy further increasing the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lund Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 It looks alot like mine mitsuba but it is hard to say anything for sure since the picture is kind of blurry and small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding_Heart1 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 i would have to say it looks like a chineese hookah. Either mitsuba or sultan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skimo Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 yeah i had one but the stem wasnt marble, it smoked alright but not to great, only when i got lucky haha, i think its called the widow on some sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rishi Posted August 29, 2006 Author Share Posted August 29, 2006 I've had a look at a few sites and it does look very much (read 'almost exactly') like a widow -though I haven't seen one that is exactly the same (the only difference is the marble part, though some widows I have seen are part marble, the design of the segment is slightly different).I haven't had any stability problems, but I will be extra careful.So far I think its smoking really well (although I am a newb!). One coal broken in half and each piece used separatley gives me an hour long smoke with a lot of thick white smoke (perhaps my view is limited as the only other hookahs I have tried have been the traditional large type while on desert safari in the UAE, and the medium size one I bought for a friend, which was horrible)!The build quality of this hookah is fantastic though -I'm so glad I chose to gift the medium size one to my friend and keep the smaller one for myself!
