deprekate Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Yup. I sent you a pic like a year ago. Ya it was expensive, but I had emailed him after it didn't hit the reserve, and he relisted it with a buy-it-now for somewhat more affordable, and I snapped it up. The vase that came with it is on one of the Tunisians (a 12" boho, the Turk takes a 10"). The Turk is my favorite hookah. About 100 years old, solid, and the tray is even ornate and solid. it even has little holes to hang chain/crystals/coins on the ends of each of the petals and on the tray.

deprekate Posted March 25, 2014 Author Share Posted March 25, 2014 Actually are you reffering to the orange one? The only red one in their is on the old Turk, but you the lighting I dark and you can't see its red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deprekate Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 Dude I would gladly trade you my KM Prince for that Turk. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Nope, Turk is mine : ) Here is a close up: I still am not happy with the vase combination. The shiny gold of the boho, clashes with the dull brown patina of the stem. I don't think I should polish the stem (100 year old patina), I was thinking I want a clear cut crystal vase. I don't really like the shape of the typical Myas and whatever the other make is. They look too much like Erlenmeyer flasks. I want a round one, kinda like the one that comes with the Mya Thunder .
