Solaris Charon Hookah Bowl – Handmade Ukrainian Clay, Lotus-Compatible

Solaris clay bowl — 10–15 g load for even, flavour-forward sessions

In simple terms: this is the part that holds your shisha flavour. The Solaris Charon is a hand-made clay bowl from Ukraine. Clay spreads heat evenly, so your mix warms up without scorching. It works with foil or a heat manager (like Kaloud Lotus) to control heat. If you want smoother flavour, easier heat control and less fuss, this is the upgrade.

What sets it apart

• Balanced heat curve from a natural clay body, tuned for steady medium heat.
• Lotus-ready rim for HMDs (e.g., Kaloud Lotus I+/I+3) to simplify heat control and cut ash spillover.
• Every bowl is hand-finished and painted—subtle shape and glaze variations mean truly one-of-a-kind pieces.
• 10–15 g capacity gives tidy, flavour-first packs without wasting tobacco.
• Works across dark-leaf and blonde mixes, so you can run your usual brands with predictable results.

Fit & compatibility

• Heat managers: fits Kaloud Lotus I+ and I+3; also works with foil + Provost style caps.
• Charcoal: 2 × 26 mm cubes to start; add a 3rd if you need a stronger ramp.

How to dial it in

• With HMD: pack 10–12 g level with the rim; start with 2 cubes. After 5–7 minutes, add or edge a 3rd if clouds feel light.
• With foil: tight foil, even holes; 2–3 cubes on the rim, rotate every 6–8 minutes to keep the heat bed even.

Craft & performance

Charon’s clay thickness and airway feel are balanced for clean flavour clarity with a gentle draw. The heat bed stays consistent, so sessions are easier to keep in the “sweet spot” without constant coal micro-moves.

Care & upkeep

• Let the bowl cool before rinsing; avoid thermal shock (no cold water on a hot bowl).
• Rinse with warm water; soft brush if needed. Dry fully between sessions.

FAQ

• Is every bowl identical? No—each Solaris piece is hand-painted and hand-finished, so patterns and micro-shapes vary slightly.
• Do I need any pre-treatment? No; just rinse, dry and it’s ready to pack.
• Does it work with blonde and dark-leaf? Yes—medium heat retention keeps both styles in a comfortable window.
