This is a modern Chinese manufactured hookah that typically retails for $400 in head shops. These hookahs are the real deal. They are made out of heavy brass and stainless steel. These are not the imitation models that are made of aluminum or zinc. These durable heavy weight constructed hookahs come with solid screw-on trays and wide air ports for optimum flow. The synthetic leather hose is 68 inches long and rust resistant. The base is 7.5 inches in diameter, which maximizes stability. The vase contains acrylic windows to see the smoke in the chamber as it bubbles. This model is perfect for heavy use at parties and modern style hookah lounges.
