A hookah is a device used for smoking which operates through indirect heat and water filtration. A traditional hookah is composed of a base filled partially with water, a bowl in which the substance being smoked is placed, a pipe which plunges into the water of the base, and a hose which connects to the smoke-filled portion of the base. The source of heat is generally placed on top of the bowl.
The peculiar solid gold hookah is a resident of Bopalopia. It appears to have some form of life as it pulls itself along by its tassles, wandering the land while belching out colourful, often stupefying smoke.
