The Meteora is one of the bowls our team hands to customers walking into Melbourne's Shisha Store asking for a proper Turkish multi-hole — and it's been on our shelf since Cosmo first brought it in. Fired Russian red clay, a five-hole floor, and a ~17–22 g load that runs a full session without burning through your shisha.

Cosmo Meteora Turkish Bowl — handcrafted red clay with a five-hole multi-hole floor

Why our Melbourne team stocks the Meteora

• Russian red clay fired at around 1,100 °C — holds heat steadily and spreads it evenly through the bowl wall.
• Five-hole Turkish floor pulls heat downward efficiently, giving dense draws once the coals settle.
• ~17–22 g capacity comfortably covers a 45–60 minute session without over-packing.
• Works with heavy foil, AOT Provost, and Kaloud-style HMDs — you pick the heat method.
• Handcrafted in Russia so every piece has slight variations in texture and finish.

How we pack it in store

• Pack shisha evenly to the rim, keeping the five holes clear so airflow isn't blocked.
• Seal with heavy-duty foil and pierce holes above each floor hole — or drop on an HMD.
• Let two or three natural coconut coals rest for three to five minutes before drawing.
• Rotate coals through the session to keep heat distributed across the bowl.

Care & storage

• Let the bowl cool fully before touching — clay hates thermal shock.
• Rinse with warm water and a soft brush. Never cold water on a hot bowl.
• Skip abrasives and harsh chemicals; the clay surface doesn't need them.
• Dry fully before putting it away.

Questions we get in store

Can I see the Meteora before I buy it?

Yes — we keep it on display at Melbourne's Shisha Store. Drop in and one of our team will walk you through the packing on it.

Will a Kaloud Lotus sit on the rim?

The Meteora is rated for both foil and HMD use, and it takes a standard Kaloud Lotus or AOT Provost cleanly.

Is each bowl identical?

No. It's handmade Russian clay, so expect small variations in finish and texture between pieces — that's part of the character.
