I bought this shisha/hookah/nargileh/water pipe/hubblebubble/whatever at the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul. I liked its modern, unadorned look – totally unlike 99% of the shishas sold there. I enjoyed bargaining with the shop owner, in English, for about 20 minutes. It was only after we completed the deal that I realized the guy was from Armenia and we could have done the whole thing in Russian.
It’s a quality piece – all stainless steel and brass, and heavy as hell. Disassembled, I can only imagine how it would look on the airport X-Ray screen.
So I went with a futuristic look for this one.
