    Because of my childhood obsession with Alice in Wonderland which still carries on into my adult life I've always adored these strange objects.....And I've never seen a hookah like this until a recent visit to a charity shop. The one's I have encountered are all too shiny and new and very big with coloured glass and stand free one the ground but this however is tiny and made of brass (perfect for a short 'fix' I'd imagine)
    It has no markings on it whatsoever and there does seen to be a little damage on the mouthpiece. It also comes apart in four pieces but their doesn't seem to be a way into the larger bottom part of it? The bowl? Other than the tiny little opening in the top......
    Either way I'd imagine this was probably a souvenir piece from somewhere like Turkey perhaps? and I don't imagine it has that much age to it, but whatever the case it's still a very cool object I've always wanted to own.
    Cost €4 ($4.57/ £3.51)

      Very exotic looking, the hose piece has such beautiful colors - and I love Alice in Wonderland too esp the most recent movies, so creative
