What is this lamp? I've seen the same lamp in old-style films and building ineriors across several countries. (lemmy.ml)

I went to a mindblowingly well-decorated/designed/art directed boutique restaurant hotel in Bangkok called the Mustang Blu and they were basically the central focus of their restaurant.

Wow that looks so cozy! I think they've been out of production for quite a while now but I imagine there must still be tens of thousands of them around

It blew my mind but the food, though photographed well on the menu, was overpriced and overly flashy looking without keeping up in the flavor department. It was also ruined by some Middle Eastern women with nose bandages and their phones out, invading our personal space because we chose to sit next to the featured spiral staircase. Definitely a tourist trap but it was decorated incredibly well.
