Default A cute little thing ...

A miniature of an Egyptian Hookah.
Precious silver work, hallmarked all over 900 grade, with date contrast corresponding to 1921-1922.
Broken tray chains already fixed.

Very nice! Quite rare item, seems complete and in fine condition, the repairs are unnoticeable. A cute little thing indeed

Thank you, Alex.
My bad expression, though; when i say 'already' fixed, i meant they were fixed 'after' the pictures i was posting were taken. In any case, they are unnoticeable ... done by the local silver smith.

That's a nice looking hookah. Have you smoked from it yet?
