Published on · Updated on
Altaïr: the brightest star in the constellation of the eagle.
Altaïr means "the flying eagle" in Arabic. It is also the name of the brightest star in the constellation Aquila, the Eagle. This white star is about twice as large and almost eleven times more luminous than the sun. Altaïr lies 17 light years from Earth. The brand takes its inspiration from it.

Altaïr shishas in metal and acrylic
Altaïr stands for elegance and refinement. The clean shapes recall the traditional shisha. Through the materials used, the designers have added a modern touch. Metal and acrylic make this shisha a modern, refined object.
Acrylic shishas have several advantages. They allow the smoke to be seen through the vase. Glass shishas are also easy to maintain and clean. Glass is not porous, so smells and tastes do not soak into the walls.
The transparent vase also allows for unusual, out-of-the-ordinary set-ups: crushed ice, lights, fruit, glitter, food colouring and so on.
There are two Altaïr shisha models:
• Altaïr Khephre: a high-quality shisha with a modern finish. Available in red, black, blue and green.
• The Altaïr Ramses Gun shisha: it has a twisted column inspired by wrought ironwork.
The Altaïr heat management system
The Altaïr heat management system adjusts the heat of the charcoal to keep conditions steady for longer. This container replaces aluminium foil. It has a compartment in which the charcoal is placed. Its lid regulates the combustion of the charcoal effectively. It comes with handles for easier handling and for safe moving. Its weight of 105 grams, its diameter of 62 mm and its handles make it easy and safe to handle.
