mitchard Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I might strip it and try my hand at painting it like the trumpets we are after. I am sure I could pull of the coloring at least. The flowers, not so much haha. Eh, whats the worst that could happen? If I fail, i'll just strip it again and leave it clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hookah hippie Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I decided to throw up some pictures of my tri metal, enjoy. I'd love to get one of those bohemian vases, willing to trade a hookah or my jet phunnel. The pictures are taken with my phone so bare with me.

cotsi95 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 [quote name='ahhhdam' timestamp='1302959960' post='505613'] [quote name='cotsi95' timestamp='1298708049' post='499617'] Well then mine is SUPER rare not only is it an "og" OG Tri but I also have REAL jumbo bohemian vase. I bought hookah from HC around 3 1/2 years ago, and the vase from eric like a year and a half ago. I know Eric has the only jumbo boho left in retail existence (Mine was the 2nd to last). Last time I asked him how much he wanted for it he said around 160 just for the vase. I dont think i'd ever sell my hookah and certainly not the vase. [/quote] I haven't been here in a while, but it seems like there's been an influx of talk about bohemian vases and such. But I do believe I have that vase but in a dark blue. I don't have a decent camera at all but I'll try and get some. I'll even take it with my OG tri so we can be twins. [/quote] If you want to sell the vase let me know asap lol i'll buy it.

poncho Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 ultra super super super rare pipe here --- Jacob Moskowitz OG! (that's me) haha -- This one is all made out of reject parts for hookah's i've made. It's take a few spills, had some broken parts, and doesn't even have an exhaust spot, but it's my daily driver, and has been for a few years now. I've been so busy with school I haven't been able to make myself a nice hookah so I just replace broken parts with reject parts when the dog or a friend knocks it over and something breaks.

ahhhdam Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Well here's the picture. Like I said, I don't have a super fancy DSLR or even a digital camera.

Haven't been able to come around and do some spring polishing. Also I believe the discoloration on the vase is from the water. I don't know how to get it off. It's like waterspots on your car. Any tips since it's on the frosted part? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I responded to you on the Bohemian vase thread about the waterspots. Gonna dig up that thread for ya... Hella fine setup, btw.

[/quote] Pshhhhhh. Most I have paid for a boho by itself was $40. Spending a ton of cash on one is stupid imo. I'd pay a bit more for some of the nicer looking ones, but I am not going to drop $100+ on one just because its a boho. Added this bay boy to the collection yesterday thanks to HOOKAH HIPPIE! Its the only time I have ever seen this Nawras model. Solid brass and 36" tall. Just need to upgrade the vase and it'll be perfect, though the current vase is some heavy glass as it is.

Hassouni Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 It's either an Elmas or a very similar one. The base and hose aren't, I don't think, but the brass components could be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
