Khalil Mamoon 3479 Imperial Lotus – 100 cm Silver Stem, Classic Bell Base

Imperial Silver Lotus 3479 — 100 cm KM with etched lotus crest tray, sculpted silver stem and a cool, open Egyptian draw

What this is, why it helps, how it works, why get one

This statement-height Khalil Mamoon pairs a wide etched lotus crest tray with a polished silver-tone stem built from stacked, turned nodes for secure handling. Inside, a straight Egyptian down-stem keeps resistance low, and KM’s single-ball purge clears the chamber in one breath. A thick, silver-striped bell base stabilises water so smoke stays cool and consistent. If you want the full classic KM feel in a tall, elegant silver finish, the 3479 delivers.

What sets it apart

• Lotus crest tray: wide, etched dish for confident coal handling and ash control.
• Open Egyptian draw: straight down-stem favours flavour and fast cloud ramp.
• One-breath purge: classic KM single-ball valve resets the chamber instantly.
• Silver-striped bell base: weighty hand-blown glass adds thermal mass for steadier temperature.
• Full stature: 100 cm overall for café-level presence and performance.

Fit & compatibility

• Base neck: KM large ≈ 45 mm (use a large base grommet). See Khalil Mamoon Base Grommet.
• Bowls: Ships with a traditional Egyptian bowl for foil. For HMDs, pair with a compatible phunnel from Phunnel Bowls.
• Hose port: Standard KM male (~11 mm). Prefer washable? Browse Silicone Hoses.

How to dial it in

• Water line: 15–20 mm above the down-stem bell for an open, quiet draw.
• Foil packs: level pack to the rim, tight foil, two 26 mm cubes to start; add a third after 5–7 min if needed.
• Purge: a slow, steady exhale fully clears; half-purge to refresh flavour mid-round.

Craft & performance

Hand-built in Cairo on a stainless-steel core with a polished nickel-silver exterior. The tall, symmetric node layout gives confident grip when warm, and the heavier bell base evens the heat curve so flavour holds deeper into the session.

Care & upkeep

• Rinse stem and base warm with mild detergent; soft nylon brush for the down-stem.
• Avoid harsh abrasives on plated parts and painted bands; dry thoroughly after cleaning.

Quick fixes

• Harsh start: lift HMD lid 10–15 s or edge a coal; for foil, ease the pack.
• Thin clouds: fully light coals; add a third cube; check seals and water level.
• Air leak: refresh bowl/base grommets and re-seat the stem and hose.
