I'm waiting till later in the day and am going to call his BF and discuss this with him, this is a really nice hookah and I'd love for my friend to have it. I just know it would really knock his socks off. Put together it is almost four feet tall. It is made of blue (his favorite color) glass and brass with filigree detailing, and has four hoses with really lovely engraved mouth pieces. It all comes in a nice leather case as well, with pipe tools and a starter pack of the necessary charcoal tablets. His BF is pretty laid back so we should be able to work something out, but if not, I do have enough extra money that I could buy him a nice glass Sherlock or bubbler.
