Portion of a hookah, consisting of a brass bowl decorated with chains and glass beads on a turned wood stem with white metal mounts, flexible tubing with black leather mounts, and a brass mouthpiece. The bowl is punched with cones and floral scrollwork; the chains are arranged in two loops and six pendants each with a blue bead. The stem has six projecting mouldings with metal mounts and a projecting socket into which the tubing fits. The tubing is painted with a series of lozenges in purple.
