Bowl- Where shisha is placed and the charcoal on top.

Stem- Allows the shisha smoke to travel from the bowl.

Ash Plate- Collects ash from charcoal.  Mostly decorative on this one, but your hookah may differ.

Gasket - Connects Stem to Base and should be airtight to allow the smoke to reach the base and bubble.

Base - The bottom of the hookah fill with water or other mixtures  to filter the shisha.

Hoses - Connect to the base or sometimes the stem of the hookah and allows you to draw the shisha smoke through.

This is the basic configuration of a hookah.   Have fun and Happy smoking!!
