From time immemorial in the East, a hookah was considered a sign of we alth and prosperity. For smoking in the house, a separate room was usually allocated, the design of which created all the conditions so that you could not only relax, but also feel superior to others. In our days, the artsy pattern in the national style and graceful forms are partly a thing of the past. They were replaced by the high-tech style with its strict design and clear lines. This is what the Shapes hookah looks like.
Product information
Looking from the outside at this device, it is not immediately possible to guess what it is intended for. Most people imagine smoking devices in the form of elegant designs, as if descended from the pages of oriental fairy tales. In modern apartments, such devices are unlikely to find a suitable place. This is what prompted Moscow entrepreneurs 5 years ago to create a new brand. True, the Shapes hookah created by them does not look quite ordinary, but this does not detract from its merits. It looks spectacular in any room and perfectly complements the modern interior.
Its design is not quite ordinary and includes several basic details:
- flask:
- bowl:
- valve;
- stand;
- hose;
- mine;
- backlight.
Not quite the usual set. The flask is made exclusively by hand by glass blowers and has an unusual shape, sharply narrowed down. This allows good control of the level of contact of the tube with the liquid. The shaft is firmly connected to the saucer, which plays the role of an additional heat exchanger. Ceramic bowl and silicone hose, in principle, is similar to the same parts of other models. The valve is threaded and can be easily replaced depending on the number of smokers. The stand is what sets the Shapes hookah apart from the rest. It seems as if he is floating in water or floating in the air. And with the help of the original lighting, the Shapes hookah resembles a space object.
Public opinion
Many people have a question about why the device is named exactly Shapes. The hookah (reviews about it and the unusual design fully correspond to this) is striking in its geometry. In Russian, the name of the company sounds like Art of Shapes. Indeed, a telling name. After all, this is a real art - to make a device of the simplest form as functional as possible. There is no complexity or pretentiousness in it.
The laconic design of the stand in modern style is equipped with special projections for attaching mouthpieces. This givesthe ability to hang the hose between smoking breaks without screwing it onto the hookah. There are no extra holes in the ceramic bowl where the liquid could drain, so the tobacco always remains moist and burns much more slowly. The collapsible shaft makes it easy to transport the device, and convenient packaging makes it possible to take it with you at any time.
The backlight, which is a small device powered by three batteries, can be considered a revolutionary design solution. It is located under the flask and illuminates it with different colors, smoothly turning into one another. From the outside it looks very impressive. It remains to add to this good traction and three types of construction (Basic, Darth, Aqua). Any of the proposed options can be considered a successful acquisition.
Lucky novelty
A lot of noise among the real connoisseurs has done a designer hookah Shapes. Even more talk was caused by the new model Primo. It doesn't look like an ordinary hookah at all.
From the side, the device looks more like a luminous coffee maker. But there are some interesting details in this device that deserve special attention:
1) The flask is an ordinary glass cylinder. This decision turned out to be revolutionary.
2) On top of the flask is a lid, which consists of two metal plates. They are discs of different diameters and are located one below the other, thus providing cooling of the smoke.
3) There is a special diffuser at the end of the tube. Thanks tothe hookah works much quieter for him and the smoke interacts better with water.
4) Special design bowl included. It has a screen that prevents the coals from falling down and also eliminates the need for foil. However, bowls from other models of hookahs are also perfect for him.
The only drawback of the novelty can be considered too thin hose, which does not allow smoking with the desired ease. But everyone has their own opinion on this matter.
